PerformWell

PerformWell is an online resource launched in 2012 by the Urban Institute, Child Trends, and Social Solutions. It offers research-based tools, guidance, and training specifically designed to help nonprofit organizations and human services professionals measure outcomes, manage performance, and continuously improve their programs. With a focus on various program areas such as mentoring, bullying prevention, and youth civic engagement, PerformWell provides tailored resources to support day-to-day performance management and data-driven decision making.

The platform features searchable databases of surveys, assessments, and outcome indicators, along with webinars, expert-written resources, and integration with performance management software like Efforts to Outcomes (ETO). This comprehensive approach allows organizations to identify appropriate measurement tools, implement continuous improvement processes, and train staff on performance management concepts and practices.
