The Change Map, the Logic Model, and Impact Outcomes

Description

An All-In-One Framework for Impact-Focused Program Planning, Proposal Development, and Evaluation Design This workshop offers a powerful way of thinking about and assessing the work your organization does – and a simple, step-by-step process for communicating the impact of your work to funders, partners, and the community at large. You'll learn and practice using new tools for crafting evaluation plans for your proposals that also support strong, strategic project management once the grant is awarded. The Logic Behind the Logic Model: Organizing for Results The Logic Model is a powerful, practical tool that helps community agencies organize resources toward change and diagnose misalignments between action and impact. This workshop also introduces the Change Map and explores how, using these tools together, we can create a clear, compelling road map for meaningful change. Change Mapping: A new, powerful way of looking at the underlying framework of your program or project plan A user's guide to the key elements of a Logic Model and how they fit together How funders use your Logic Model to evaluate your proposal Your Logic Model as a powerful diagnostic tool The Logic Model in action: samples from a variety of community organizations The Essential Evaluation Toolkit: Defining and Measuring Success Building on the morning's session you'll explore these topics and much more: What does ''success'' look like in our grant-funded programs? How can we define and measure the actual impact of our work in the community? How can we use the Logic Model to create outcome statements that funders will love? How does our Logic Model thinking support a solid plan for evaluating and managing our program's results? What kinds of results and reporting do funders want from us—and how do we deliver? How do we create a framework for effective program management and quality improvement? $70 per person for session ($60
