Comprehensive Needs Assessment
A Comprehensive Needs Assessment is a systematic process used to identify and analyze the needs of a community, organization, or group. It gathers data through surveys, interviews, and observations to understand gaps between current conditions and desired outcomes. By evaluating strengths and weaknesses, it helps prioritize areas for improvement and informs decision-making. This assessment is essential for effective planning and resource allocation, ensuring that initiatives are targeted and relevant to address specific challenges and enhance overall well-being.
