Elizabeth Mugo specializes in quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis of programs that support families and youth.
Since joining Mathematica in 2020, Mugo has worked on a range of projects in the areas of child welfare, family engagement, teen pregnancy prevention, and family support. Currently, she is a task lead providing evaluation technical assistance to agency partners in Colorado on a summative evaluation for Building Capacity to Evaluate Interventions for Youth/Young Adults with Child Welfare Involvement at Risk of Homelessness. This project includes an impact and implementation study of one comprehensive service model. Mugo led interviews and qualitative analysis as part of the Statewide Family Engagement Center implementation study, which investigates the strategies and services grantees provided and their experiences engaging parents during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mugo’s past work includes supporting user experience research to inform dashboards, leading data collection from over 300 sexual risk avoidance education grantees on the impact of COVID-19 on service delivery, and serving as a project manager of over 10 contracts. She holds a B.A. in sociology and anthropology from Washington and Lee University, where she was a Questbridge Scholar.
This analytic plan serves as the foundation for a summative evaluation of the Colorado Pathways to Success comprehensive service model that Mathematica and ACF are conducting as part of YARH-3 in partnership with the Colorado Department of Human Services and the Center for Policy Research.
