Evidence¶

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2

Open-ended survey responses about anticipated future impact. One respondent projected greatly reduced in-school programs in ten years with a pivot to professional development and after-school work; others foresee supporting schools in launching programs and understanding fund use, a new service type for several organizations.

"Although it may be too early for organizations to assess the full impact Prop 28 AMS has had on their organizations, several believe they will need to expand the services they offer to schools and districts to stay relevant."
