Multiple points of reference across data types helped to illustrate patterns in the data. The emergent patterns from the data helped to answer the evaluation questions. An evaluation report was generated and copies distributed onJuly 21, 2007 to the International Rescue Committee of Salt Lake City, Utah." |
