Overall
Survey and Evaluation Findings
Based on over 5,000 people contacted
and over 300 surveys returned to the Home and Farm*A*Syst office
in Washington, the following percentages have held true. Around
85% stated the program is highly educational. Around 75% stated
the program helped them identify a high risk activity or practice.
Over 75% indicated that they would make at least one change over
the next 1 to 3 years to reduce a pollution risk. Tracking the participants
of the program has been difficult and requires a local effort (local
coordinator with volunteers) to collect data on whether planned
changes were actually made.
It should be noted that these survey
results are based on a number of delivery strategies, degree of
contact, and version of the program utilized. It was found that
surveys results were similar for both generic versions and more
technical versions.
