Needs Assessment and Evaluation

We believe that assessment and evaluation are the cornerstone of any successful inclusion effort. Lakeshore offers organizational and community level needs assessment services linked with evaluation opportunities such as focus groups, surveys, and interviews.

We can also assist organizations and communities with collecting data and identifying solutions for disability inclusion.

Program Adaption

Using the five domains of inclusion (built environment, services, instruction, equipment and technology, and policy), Lakeshore can adapt evidence-based programs to ensure they are accessible to individuals with disabilities. We will also educate program developers, coaches, instructors and other program specialists on how to adapt programs using our domains of inclusion.
