Compassion
At the heart of all we do is a “sympathetic consciousness of others’ distress together with a desire to alleviate it" (Merriam Webster). We focus all our actions on social justice, with the desire to advanced vulnerable populations through lasting systemic change.
It's our mission to help you advance yours.
We’re driven by your success.
LaBarbera Learning Solutions is your evaluation partner.
I might be stating the obvious, but I believe program evaluation should be given a high priority. For years we have lamented the lack of documented evidence of our work. We now have an opportunity to provide verifiable, professional level research to demonstrate what we have known all along. We are making a difference in the lives of those we serve. But evidence is important to our stakeholders and donors and we need to make the commitment to help them see what we already know. LaBarbera Learning Solutions gave us that proof.
