Research and Evaluation
Staff and consultants to the Extension Center for Community Vitality regularly conduct research to evaluate the effectiveness of programs and to explore issues related to community development. We use this research to modify existing programs or develop new ones that better meet the needs of Minnesota communities.
We share these articles and reports in the hope they can benefit the field of community development, community leaders, business people and anyone interested in improving the health and vitality of our state.
