Fair Food Network is seeking a consultant to provide third-party evaluative services for our Michigan Double Up Food Bucks program. We are seeking a consultant or firm who can provide both impact research and process/program evaluation support. The consultant will provide an external program evaluation based on 1) our core program outcomes (number and demographics of participants, Double Up Food Bucks earning and spending patterns, program experience, etc.) and 2) additional primary data collected by the evaluator from grocers, farmers and program participants. This evaluation will help us to answer two key impact questions for our program – namely, defining the economic benefit of Double Up to farmers, and quantifying the extent to which program participation leads to greater fruit and vegetable consumption.
