Area of Science:

Health Services Research
Community-Based Participatory Research
Program Evaluation

Background:

Developing effective evaluation tools for physical activity programs is crucial for persons with disabilities.
Community-university partnerships can enhance the relevance and utility of evaluation resources.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the collaborative process of developing an online RE-AIM evaluation toolkit.
To create an evidence-informed resource for organizations offering physical activity programming to people with disabilities.

Main Methods:

An integrated knowledge translation approach guided a four-step development process.
Methods included literature reviews, Delphi consensus, feasibility assessments, think-aloud interviews, and collaborative dissemination planning.
Partnerships involved community organizations and university researchers.

Main Results:

Fifteen relevant RE-AIM papers were identified, and indicators were refined through Delphi consensus.
Eighty-five feasible measures were identified and linked to RE-AIM indicators.
Recommendations for the online platform and toolkit were generated through user interviews.
A dissemination plan including an information package and webinars was co-developed.

Conclusions:

Community and university partners successfully developed a practical, evidence-based evaluation toolkit.
Key strategies for successful partnerships included early engagement, consensus methods, and mentorship.
The online RE-AIM toolkit is available at et.cdpp.ca for use and further evaluation.
