DHHS, Administration for Children and Families, Office of Refugee Resettlement
An extension of The Lewin Group’s evaluation of two federally-funded employability programs serving refugees resettled in the U.S., this report outlines ways that the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) can better plan for and institutionalize evaluation and accountability throughout the range of refugee resettlement programs. It presents a variety of options ORR might consider to enhance its existing performance management activities and proposes experimental and non-experimental evaluations of selected service strategies.
