HELLO INSIGHT STUDY
BOYS MADE MEN
BACKGROUND
Outcome measurement is often the most difficult task of a nonprofit organization, demanding a number of financial and human resources that some organizations simply do not have. After researching the key measurement data and evaluating various tools, ODAAP selected Hello Insight to measure Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) capacities that tend to be nurtured when children participate in sports and other out-of-school time activities. SEL is the process through which young people understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.

GOALS
Using the pre/post assessment and evaluation surveying tool, Collaborative member organizations measure the growth of SEL capacities of youth participating in their programs, as well as evaluate the effectiveness of their program practices. Hello Insight provides users with specific recommendations and training in areas needing improvement.
OUTCOMES
99% of young people are developing in at least one SEL capacity (we measure five)and ODAAP goes deep with young people developing in multiple SEL capacities.
More than a quarter (27%) develop in all five SEL capacities that we measure and nearly three-quarters (72%) develop in three or more SEL capacities.
73% of ODAAP’s young men developed their SEL capacity of positive identity which is a young person internal sense of who they are and confidence to explore the multiple facets of their identities.
93% of ODAAP participants are highly satisfied with the ODAAP experience, as indicated by their response that they would recommend the program to a friend.
