Learn more about the NeighborWorks Organizational Assessment Services Process.

Our final product is a written assessment report with recommendations to build and sustain practices that support success and provide a framework for accountability. The full process typically takes 90 to 120 days from the initial provision of materials until presentation of the written report. The cost of an evaluation depends on the size and complexity of the organization and its programs.
