SEOO EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE
INTRODUCTION
A.
PURPOSE
This questionnaire is designed to collect data for later tabulation
and analysis. The collected data will include (1) judgements made
by the people being interviewed (not by the evaluator); (2) lists;
(3) detailed descriptions of significant items.
B.
POLICIES
1. Do not expect your answers to be treated confidentially. In
fact no confidential information is desired. Therefore,
your answers - many of which are your opinion - should be
what you could and would be willing to state publicly.
2. We want an evaluation which is fair, honest, and helpful.
Therefore, the questionnaire includes the questions being asked
of all groups.
3. The evaluator will be glad to show you what he has written
down at the conclusion of personal interviews.
4. You will be asked to review and initial the interviewers notes
in order to assure accuracy.
C. PARTS
The questionnaire is separated into different sections. Some people
will answer the questions in only one section, others in several
sections; some in all sections. The cover letter with this questionnaire
states which section you are to answer.
The groups of people who will be interviewed are:
(1) SEOO Director
(2) SEOO staff
(3) State agencies
(4) Federal, local government, private agencies
(5) CAAs and poverty groups
(6) OEO Regional Office staff

SEOO EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE (Continued)
The references which are noted refer to OEO Instruction 7501-1,
"The Role of State Economic Opportunity Offices", SEOO Form 81
and to the SEOO Work Program.
D. PROCEDURES
1. Read the question and circle the word in the rating colum which
you belive best states the judgement you would reach.
Answer either "Yes/No/Don't Know" or "Good/Poor/Don't Know"
depending on the question. You have to decide on one answer;
you may not qualify it into the "maybe" area.
2. When the question asks for a LIST of items:
(a) take a blank form (which we've called "LIST")
(b) write in the Section # and Question # in the box.
(c) fill out the filing information on the top of the form--
in case the page comes loose.
(a) fill in the listed items as briefly as possible.
3. When the question asks you to DESCRIBE items in more detail -
(a) take a blank form (which we've called "DESCRIPTION")
(b) write in the Section # and Question #, in the box.
(c) fill out the filing information.
(d) write in the details briefly. Don't worry if the standard
format of the blank form doesn't really fit what you want
to write.
4. You may attach copies of any supporting documents you wish--
but do not expect them to ever be returned to you.
E. THE ANALYSIS
When all the questionnaires have been returned the answers will be
tabulated. For example, out of 44 CAAs in the state, 34 responded.
Of the 34, 20 said "good", 8 said "Poor", 2 said "Don't Know" and
4 didn't answer a certain question. Then the CAAs response will be
compared with how the SEOO answered the question and how the Regional
Office answered it.
-5-
SEOO EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE (Continued)
Lists given by the SEOO and the various agencies will be checked
against each other.
Descriptions of items as written by one group will be compared
against descriptions prepared by other groups.
F. THE REPORT
The report will of necessity emphasize how different groups perceive
performance.
Factual information drawn from the listings will give a view of
actual performance.
The descriptions of significant successes or failures, etc. will
help gain an understanding of the quality of performance.

The collected data will include (1) judgements made\nby the people being interviewed (not by the evaluator); (2) lists;\n(3) detailed descriptions of significant items.\nB.\nPOLICIES\n1. Do not expect your answers to be treated confidentially. In\nfact no confidential information is desired. Therefore,\nyour answers - many of which are your opinion - should be\nwhat you could and would be willing to state publicly.\n2. We want an evaluation which is fair, honest, and helpful.\nTherefore, the questionnaire includes the questions being asked\nof all groups.\n3. The evaluator will be glad to show you what he has written\ndown at the conclusion of personal interviews.\n4. You will be asked to review and initial the interviewers notes\nin order to assure accuracy.\nC. PARTS\nThe questionnaire is separated into different sections. Some people\nwill answer the questions in only one section, others in several\nsections; some in all sections. The cover letter with this questionnaire\nstates which section you are to answer.\nThe groups of people who will be interviewed are:\n(1) SEOO Director\n(2) SEOO staff\n(3) State agencies\n(4) Federal, local government, private agencies\n(5) CAAs and poverty groups\n(6) OEO Regional Office staff\n-4-\nSEOO EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE (Continued)\nThe references which are noted refer to OEO Instruction 7501-1,\n\"The Role of State Economic Opportunity Offices\", SEOO Form 81\nand to the SEOO Work Program.\nD. PROCEDURES\n1. Read the question and circle the word in the rating colum which\nyou belive best states the judgement you would reach.\nAnswer either \"Yes/No/Don't Know\" or \"Good/Poor/Don't Know\"\ndepending on the question. You have to decide on one answer;\nyou may not qualify it into the \"maybe\" area.\n2. When the question asks for a LIST of items:\n(a) take a blank form (which we've called \"LIST\")\n(b) write in the Section # and Question # in the box.\n(c) fill out the filing information on the top of the form--\nin case the page comes loose.\n(a) fill in the listed items as briefly as possible.\n3. When the question asks you to DESCRIBE items in more detail -\n(a) take a blank form (which we've called \"DESCRIPTION\")\n(b) write in the Section # and Question #, in the box.\n(c) fill out the filing information.\n(d) write in the details briefly. Don't worry if the standard\nformat of the blank form doesn't really fit what you want\nto write.\n4. You may attach copies of any supporting documents you wish--\nbut do not expect them to ever be returned to you.\nE. THE ANALYSIS\nWhen all the questionnaires have been returned the answers will be\ntabulated. For example, out of 44 CAAs in the state, 34 responded.\nOf the 34, 20 said \"good\", 8 said \"Poor\", 2 said \"Don't Know\" and\n4 didn't answer a certain question. Then the CAAs response will be\ncompared with how the SEOO answered the question and how the Regional\nOffice answered it.\n-5-\nSEOO EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE (Continued)\nLists given by the SEOO and the various agencies will be checked\nagainst each other.\nDescriptions of items as written by one group will be compared\nagainst descriptions prepared by other groups.\nF. THE REPORT\nThe report will of necessity emphasize how different groups perceive\nperformance.\nFactual information drawn from the listings will give a view of\nactual performance.\nThe descriptions of significant successes or failures, etc. will\nhelp gain an understanding of the quality of performance.\nDesigned and produced by the\nAlaska/Oregon Field Operations\nTeam\nCharles Chong\nHarold Whitehead\nMary Thomas\nPeggy Jacobson\nRachel Ensslin\nPrepared under the direction of\nMr. James Young, Deputy Director\nOEO Region X\nwith\nMr. John Kent, Regional Counsel\nOEO Region X\n-6-\nSECTION\nQ-I\nTHE SE00 AND THE GOVERNOR\nQUES. # REF.\nRATING\n#1.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO provided the Governor with\nyes no\n2a.\ninformation and advice with respect to the\ndon't know\npolicies and programs of OEO and other anti-\npoverty resources?\nLIST how many times and for how long this\nhas been done during the past 3 months\non positive or negative issues.\n#2.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO assisted the Governor\ngood poor\n2a.\nconcerning the Governor's authority to disapprove\ndon't know\nOEO grants and contracts of assistance?\nLIST grants or contracts which have been\ndisapproved by the Governor in the past\n12 months.\n3.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO Director acted as the\ngood poor\n2b.\nGovernor's representative on matters related\ndon't know\nto the poor?\n#4. 7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO Director provided the\ngood poor\n2c.\nGovernor with information on causes and con-\ndon't know\nditions of poverty in the state?\nLIST how many times and how this has been\ndone during the past 3 months.\n#5.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO provided an annual written analysis\nyes no\n6a.\nto the Governor, highlighting the principal\ndon't know\nproblems and causes of poverty in the state and\nCAP 81\nincluding recommended priorities and types of\nII-A/B-5\nprograms to meet those problems?\n#6.\n7501-1\nHas the SE00 provided to the Governor an annual\nyes no\nthree-year anti-poverty plan?\ndon't know\n-7-\nSECTION\nQ-I\nTHE SEOO AND THE GOVERNOR\nQUES. # REF.\nRATING\n#7.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO assisted the Governor\ngood poor\n2a.\nconcerning the Governor's authority to consent\ndon't know\nto the assignment and request termination of\nassignments of VISTA Volunteers (Section 810(b)).\nLIST the requests made by the Governor for\nthe termination of assignments of VISTA\nVolunteers in the past 12 months.\n8-8-\nSECTION\nQ-II\nTHE SE00 AND OTHER STATE AGENCIES\nQUES. #\nREF.\nRATING\n#1.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SE00 Director acted as the\ngood poor\n2b.\nGovernor's representative on matters related to\ndon't know\nthe poor with respect to other state agencies?\nCAP 81\nI-C.\nLIST the occasions during the past 3 months -\nwhen the SE00 Director has met with other\nstate agencies on matters related to the\npoor.\nDESCRIBE the occasions which had significant\nresults.\n#2.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO Director provided other state\nyes no\n2c.\nagencies with information and statistics on\ndon't know\n3d.\nthe causes and conditions of poverty in the\nCAP 81\nstate, on the problems and needs of the poor,\nI-A/C\nand the programs and efforts to overcome poverty\nII-A/B\nwithin the state?\nLIST the occasions during the past three\nmonths and identify the agencies.\n#3.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO provided other appropriate state\nyes no\n6a.\nagencies with copies of an annual written\ndon't know\nanalysis, highlighting the principal problems\nCAP 81\nand causes of poverty in the state and including\nI-A/C\nrecommended priorities and types of programs to\nII-A/B\nmeet those problems?\n#4.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO provided to other appropriate\nyes no\n6a.\nstate agencies an annual three-year anti-\ndon't know\npoverty plan?\nCAP 81\nI-A/C\nII-A\n#5.\n7501-1\nHas the SEOO given priority to the mobilization\nyes no\n3a.\nand coordination of anti-poverty resources,\ndon't know\nparticularly at the state level?\nCAP 81\nIV-C\n-9-\nSECTION\nQ-II\nTHE SEOO AND OTHER STATE AGENCIES\nRATING\nQUES. #\nREF.\n#6.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO developed effective inter-\ngood poor\n3a.\nagency mechanisms to assure good communication be-\ndon't know\ntween state agencies and offices whose activities\nCAP 81\naffect the poor?\nIV-D\nDESCRIBE those inter-agency mechanisms which\nhave had significant success.\n#7.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO, on its own initiative,\ngood poor\n3a.\nsought out and developed or assisted in the devel-\ndon't know\n4d.\nopment of every state resource (programs, expertise,\n6h.\nfunds, etc.) that can be effectively marshalled\nand/or coordinated to assist CAAs and other anti-\nCAP 81\npoverty efforts within the state?\nI-C\nII-A\nLIST agencies and resources mobilized during\nIV-C\nthe past 6 months.\nW.P.\nDESCRIBE significant successes.\nIII-C\nIV-A/C\n#8.\n7501-1\nHow well has the SEOO acted as a special advocate\ngood poor\n3b.\nof the poor by -\ndon't know\na.
