Evaluation Tools overview
The Evaluation Tool provide Local Drug Action Teams with a step by step approach to evaluating their Community Action Plans. LDATs can access the full versions of the Evaluation toolkits through the LDAT Community Action Plan platform.
The Evaluation Tools will assist LDATs to identify measures for activities and explore alternative data collection methods.
