Research Department

The Riverview Center for Growth research department serves four key functions for the agency, including research, data systems and usage and analysis, program evaluation, as well as grant writing and management.

The research department serves as the main liaison for prospective research partners, helping our agency understand requests to be included as a project site for research related to any of our agency’s programs.

Our research department provides other support internally by developing and administering satisfaction surveys, completing internal research requests for agency management, helping with a data-centered approaches across the agency, sharing professional development opportunities and providing the latest articles, reports and findings with Riverview leadership, supervisors and staff.

The Riverview research department supports the agency’s data systems, usage and communications. The research department works with managers and our internal implementation committee to refine the quality of our data, improve procedures for gathering data and ensure the usefulness of the data.

We also conduct our own research. In 2021, for example, we received a gift of $125,000 from the Murdock Foundation Charitable Trust to complete a mixed methods evaluation of the impacts the COVID-19 pandemic had on client engagement and client outcomes with a specific emphasis on telehealth.

Each Riverview program maintains a logic model that outlines the process for achieving positive client outcomes. Annually, program managers review supporting data, evaluate the success of their program and plan for continued growth. The research department facilitates and supports this cycle of continuous improvement for our agency.

The Riverview research department writes and manages grants for the agency. Grant awards are essential because they support our many programs, provide funding for needed supplies and help improve infrastructure. The following list includes recent grant awards. We wish to thank each of our generous sponsors for their support of our programs and services.
