Asthma resources
Evaluation Report: August, 2005
King County Allies Against Asthma (AAA) was a project of the King County Asthma Forum (KCAF) designed to improve the health of low-income children with asthma located in Central and South Seattle and Southwest King County. King County AAA was one of seven sites from around the United States that received funding by a four-year grant from The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJ) Allies Against Asthma project. The national RWJ AAA project was intended to develop models that improve access to and the quality of clinical care, establish linkages with existing asthma or other relevant surveillance systems, prevent asthma symptoms and environmental triggers, foster patient and community education, and strengthen community-based asthma coalitions.
This report covers the three-year implementation phase of AAA, which encompasses the calendar year January 1, 2002 to June 30, 2005. The evaluation plan used a qualitative case study design drawing on a variety of data sources including key informant interviews with AAA stakeholders, closed-ended surveys of KCAF members, program records, grant proposals, meeting minutes, coalition-wide e-mail messages, progress reports, observation, and other program records.
The report is divided into the following sections as defined by the project objectives.
