Implementation/Process Study

| Aim |
To identify implementation issues, draw lessons about service delivery challenges and innovations in rural areas, and provide details about how programs achieve desired results. Data will come primarily from visits
to the demonstration sites. The visits will include discussions with administrators
and staff of WtW programs and related agencies, focus groups with participants and
control group members, and program observation. Data from surveys, as well as
program records, will be used to examine sample members’ participation in program
activities and use of services.
