Abstract: The Helen Keller National
Center for Deaf-Blind Youths and
Adults (HKNC) provides services
designed to equip clients to live
independently in their communities
and/or to enhance their ability to secure

evaluation will identify characteristics
of the populations served by HKNC and
the extent to which HKNC effectively
serves clients with different needs. The
evaluation will also examine the
relationship between HKNC and
vocational rehabilitation (VR) agencies
and how well HKNC meets the needs of
the agencies. Finally, this evaluation
will include recommendations to
improve HKNC programs and service
delivery, including measures that could
be used to assess ongoing performance
of the Center, its regional staff and
functions, and its national training
program.
The evaluation scope of work is
identified in the following objectives:
• Provide RSA with reliable and valid
information on program effectiveness,
including cost effectiveness.
• Identify both the characteristics of
the populations served by HKNC and
the strengths and weaknesses of the
program that have an impact on its
effectiveness in serving these
populations.
• Examine the relationship between
HKNC and VR agencies and the
effectiveness of direct services,
technical assistance, and training
activities provided by the Center’s
headquarters and regional programs in
meeting the needs of VR agencies.
• Make recommendations for program
adjustments or improvements based on
study findings, including measures that
could be implemented to assess ongoing
performance.
