Beginning last year, NCOA engaged Social Policy Research Associates (SPR) to conduct an evaluation to identify promising outreach, screening, and application assistance strategies being used by different types of Benefits Enrollment Centers. SPR also conducted comprehensive interviews/case studies with 8 BECs to better understand how their outreach and enrollment strategies differed depending on what type of organization housed the program.

 

We’re pleased to publish a report of SPR’s findings at: https://www.ncoa.org/resources/bec-promising-practices-report/ (and attached to this email). You may recall that SPR also conducted a webinar summarizing their findings in late June. You can access a recording of this webinar at: https://vimeo.com/226771922.

 

We thank all of those BECs who opened their doors (and files) to help us with this very informative evaluation effort!
