Abstract
(type = abstract)
Young children who enter the foster care system may have an increased risk emotional, behavioral, and developmental disorders when compared to the general population (Leslie, Landsverk, Ezzet-Lofstrom, Tschann, Slymen & Garland, 2000). This dissertation documents the process of planning and conducting a program evaluation of a university-based counseling program that provides therapeutic services for children in the foster care system. The Foster Care program addresses the psychological and social problems of being involved in the foster care system through therapy and consultation. The program evaluation that was planned and conducted used Maher’s (2012) program planning and evaluation framework. The first research task was the creation of a Program Design document. This document put the program into an evaluable format using Maher’s model (2012). The second research task was to determine the extent in which the program was being implemented as designed. Data were collected through interviews with stakeholders, survey responses of graduate student therapists, and a review of program related documents. The intent of the Program Design Document and evaluation of program implementation was to determine strengths of the program and make recommendations to key stakeholders involved in the Foster Care program. Recommendations were offered about the development, improvement and ongoing evaluation of the Foster Care program.
