This paper describes a conceptual model of human service program evaluation, and integrates three key components of the evaluation process: a) Levels of Evaluative Activity, b) Functional Roles of the Evaluator, and c) Program Information Capability. This model has been useful in assessing evaluation capability of mental health programs, and in suggesting itineraries for enhancing evaluation capacity.
