Evaluation continues to be integral to all of Media Power Youth's programs. We utilize and create evidence-based practices and programs (set of prevention activities that evaluation research has shown to be effective). Most recently, Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA) awarded MPY a mini-subcontract for "BUILDING EVALUATION CAPACITY FOR EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMS". Following the rigorous evaluation of MPY's 12-lesson health/art curriculum in the Manchester, NH schools in the fall 2009, Media Power Youth will become eligible for the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP).
