Grounded insights. Meaningful Impact.
Hi, I’m Loren 👋🏼I’m a social worker, researcher, and evaluator with experience across public systems and nonprofits. I started Rooted Evaluation to help mission-driven programs use data to tell their story and improve their impact.

Services

I work with programs to:
✓ | Plan and design practical, strengths-based evaluations |
✓ | Create surveys, interview tools, and data collection plans |
✓ | Analyze data you already have (or help you get new data) |
✓ | Write clear, actionable reports for funders, staff, and stakeholders |
✓ | Make evaluation useful, not just a checkbox |
Whether you need help with one part or want a full evaluation from start to finish, we can find an approach that fits your goals and budget.
how it works
If you're interested, we’ll start with a short call to learn about your program and see if we're a good fit. I’ll put together a brief plan based on what you need, and we’ll go from there.Since I’m just launching Rooted Evaluation, I’m taking on a few pro bono clients this fall. If your program could use some evaluation support and cost is a barrier, please reach out.
