Why programs choose VIA

Most of our clients have worked with us across several grant cycles. They tell us the reason is simple: we know 21st CCLC and evaluation deeply, our team is approachable, we meet our deadlines, and our reports are designed so program staff and communities can actually use them to understand and improve programming.

If you’re applying for a new round or looking for a new evaluator, we’re glad to talk through what your program needs.

What our clients say

This is our first year working with VIA and we couldn’t be happier for the services they have provided us. We needed a local evaluator for the 21st Century Community Learning Center grant we received and we made the right choice.
