Design Powerful Strategies for Lasting Success

You’re on a mission. So am I.

When you focus on the root causes of social and public health problems, the possibility of changing your community for the better becomes real.

Take it from me, I know how frustrating it can be to implement programs that just don’t work. I also know how important prevention is.

I started out as a therapist working with addicted adolescents. When their insurance ran out, they were discharged whether they were ready or not. Too often, many relapsed after they got home. The last straw was when I had to fly one of our teens back to her hometown to be committed to a state hospital. She was just too ill to go straight home.

I knew there had to be another way. I wanted to make a difference in the lives of young people BEFORE they made devastating choices.

And so, I became a Community Psychologist. Community psychologists are all about prevention, community systems change, and equity.

I have helped many coalitions, nonprofit, and community leaders develop and evaluate community strategies that really work. Because the truth is, to really change communities, simple programs are not enough. That’s why I created Community Evaluation Solutions.

Dr. Ann Price, Owner

“Dr. Ann Price and Associates make the evaluation process easy- from helping identify the tools needed to collect data all the way to data analysis and program recommendations. The CES team is responsive and always willing to go above and beyond for their clients. Their attentiveness to detail in the evaluation field is impeccable. As someone who was intimidated by logic models, Dr. Price was always willing to explain (and re-explain) logic models. I highly recommend working with the CES Team for any of your community evaluation needs!”
