Arts Project Support

Hmong women with disabilities will enhance their ability to collaboratively produce a broadcast-quality documentary film paired with an effective impact campaign. Ishwari Rajak, who is on the Advisory Committee, is a professional arts project evaluator and will lead the Committee in its evaluation work. Evaluation methods include: 1. Self-reporting of individual group members will speak to efficacy of the collaboration, and whether it was a success for all artist participants. 2. To speak to artistic quality ("broadcast quality"), we will track which distributors and festivals are interested in the completed film as well as any critical media reviews. 3. To speak to efficacy of the impact goals ("an effective impact campaign"), the group will develop a survey tool to for use after each community screening. Tool will include questions/opportunities for actionable steps audience members can take afterward based on the ultimate impact plan to be created. The survey will request contact information to follow up at a later date with audience members and organizations on the actionable items to check status.
