Have you ever felt that the evidence that you have documented is missing something? Does it feel like you are familiar with the various ingredients of your organization’s work however a critical spice is missing? Is that missing component the richness of the work that you do? The cultural-specific aspects? You are not alone.

As with any good chef, they had been trying to figure out that key missing ingredient. In this case, they were actively involved in documenting violence related indicators and outcomes, however, they felt that something was missing from their recipe for cultural specific work. We offer this section for those who might like to enhance their current evaluations with cultural specific content.
