# Session Reach/Length by Session Type

#### Location

This panel appears on the following dashboards:

* [SNAP-Ed Dashboard](/analyze/impact-dashboards/snap-ed-dashboard.md)

#### Modules Included

* Program Activities

#### Filters

**Applied Filters**

* **Viewable records** — Only Program Activities the current user has permission to view are included.

**Non-Applicable Filters**

All standard Program Activity filters are supported by this panel.

#### Calculations

1. PEARS retrieves all viewable Program Activities that match the current dashboard filters.
2. Programs are classified as single-session or multi-session based on their occurrence count.
3. For each category, the panel calculates box plot statistics across all program occurrences:
   * **Session Length** — Duration of each session in minutes. The box plot shows the minimum, first quartile (Q1), median, third quartile (Q3), and maximum.
   * **Session Reach** — Number of participants per session. The box plot shows the same five statistics.
4. Two box plots are displayed side by side, one for session length and one for session reach, each comparing single-session and multi-session programs.

#### Additional Notes

* Box plots provide a quick view of the distribution and variability of session metrics.
* Outliers (extremely long sessions or high attendance) are visible as points beyond the whiskers.
