Transforming Knowledge into Change

A Practical Guide to Documenting Influence and Leverage In Making Connections Communities

This guide offers practical advice on capturing and documenting influence and leverage. Though developed for communities participating in the in Annie E. Casey Foundation's Making Connections program, the guide contains valuable information for the wider advocacy evaluation community. It provides clarification, concrete examples, and suggested approaches for documenting often elusive concepts.
