As part of the CNCS Knowledge Network, the Office of Research and Evaluation has designed resources and evaluation courses to assist grantees and CNCS staff as they move through each stage of the evaluation process.
One of our most popular courses is Budgeting for an Evaluation, check it out!
Budgeting for an Evaluation: The course discusses the key components of an evaluation budget and approaches for creating an evaluation budget.

Recently, CNCS Research Competition Grantees, Tufts University and California State University San Marcos were prominently featured on NPR and KPBS, respectively.
Tufts University is using their CNCS grant to examine whether participation in civic engagement activities, such as membership in AmeriCorps State and National programs, can improve job prospects for young people.
California State University San Marcos is using their CNCS grant to study civic engagement, national service, and volunteering behavior among Latinos and Latinas in San Diego.
These are just two examples of the amazing work being done by our seven current research grantees to better understand civic behavior in America. Although the Research Grants Opportunity has closed, you can learn more here.
