, we describe the general purposes of the evalua-tion component of RALLY programming. Then, through a pilotstudy in an urban middle school, we investigate how the RALLYProgram services affect students’ resiliency, learning potential, andrisks and the implementation of RALLY services and program sat-isfaction among students, practitioners, and teachers. This in-formation will contribute to a deeper understanding of how investments in RALLY can facilitate development and resilience instudents, promote academic success, and reduce mental healthrisks. With these goals, we also aim to contribute more broadly to a way to evaluate the conditions necessary to allow students tothrive socially, emotionally, and academically.
