Abstract: Since setting the goal of building a socialist harmonious society and the central government’s request to improve public services provision, social services in China have developed rapidly, and their evaluation issues have also attracted more and more attention. Different from the evaluation practice of international social service programs, the current mainstream evaluation method in China is accreditation. On the basis of review on the status of accreditation in the evaluation, as well as the empirical and evidence-based characteristics of current international program evaluation from an international perspective, this article proposes to strengthen the access management of social service programs by means of accreditation of its subject, promote the evidence-based evaluation on the whole program life course, and enhance its role in the evaluation of the effectiveness of social service programs.

Key words: social service program, accreditation, international perspective, reflection
