Technical assistance
Supporting effective implementation
We provide technical assistance to introduce new methods and programs, teach new tools, and build capacity in your organization. Sometimes effective implementation requires starting from the basics, and other times your team might just need the right tool calibrated to fit your context. With our range of skills and subject matter expertise, the JG team can help you identify possible implementation challenges at the beginning of something new and track success and opportunities for improvement over time. JG staff have experience providing technical assistance program design and adaptation, fidelity monitoring, data entry, extraction, and interpretation, and planning for long-term sustainability.
Types of technical assistance:
- Implementation
- Monitoring and fidelity
