Status: Unable to judge.
2000 data is baseline data.
Explanation: Equity Assistance Centers (EACs) reported an unduplicated count of events, such that each event is only counted once. Web site visits: Eight of ten EACs reported "Web site visits." Mailings or individual requests for information: EACs reported each mass mailing as a single mailing event, regardless of how many individuals received the mailing. Consultations by telephone or e-mail: Nine of ten EACs reported consultations by telephone or e-mail. |
Additional Source Information: Equity Assistance Center Project Performance Reports, 2000.
Frequency: Other.
Collection Period: 2001.
Validated By: No Formal Verification.
Limitations: Self-reported project-level data have been analyzed with the assistance of an outside contractor. Since EAC directors report that they are operating at full capacity, it is difficult to expect significant growth in activity and output of resources with level-funding of appropriations.

2000 data is baseline data.
Explanation: Customer satisfaction surveys were administered for the first time in 2000. The next administration of customer surveys is planned in 2001. |
Additional Source Information: Customer Survey for the period, July 1999 to June 2000.
Frequency: Other.
Collection Period: 1999 - 2000.
Validated By: No Formal Verification.
Limitations: The program faces a challenge in collecting reliable data in that the Equity Assistance Centers were not previously required to use a uniform reporting system to collect data. In the second year of the program a uniform method of collecting and reporting data was established with assistance from the Department. Since EAC directors report that they are operating at full capacity, it is difficult to expect significant growth in activity and output of resources with level-funding of appropriations.
