The article describes the purpose of the evaluation for Statistics for Action (SfA): to learn to what extent SfA's set of materials and resources and training developed by math educators with input from environmental organizers, could increase numeracy among environmental organizers and the community members they serve. For this generally unpopular content (math) in an unusual context (environmental campaigns), the author describes project and evaluation design choices that worked, and those that didn’t.
