5. The Strategic Plan identifies the Short-term and Long-term objectives. The Implementation Plan identifies the measureable outcomes. The Evaluation Plan identifies the steps that need to be taken when conducting an outcome evaluation.

6. Overview of Evaluation – Process Evaluation documents all aspects of the implementation of an intervention. It monitors the outputs of the strategy. – Outcome Evaluation documents whether the strategies made a difference, and if so, what changed.

8. PROCESS EVALUATION

9. How will the implementation of the strategic plan be assessed? A Process Evaluation assesses: What activities were implemented Were activities implemented as planned Who participated and for how long? Were the resources sufficient? What obstacles were encountered? Strengths and weaknesses of the implementation What adaptations were made?

10. The Process Evaluation will assess whether key action steps from the implementation plan occurred as expected. Two examples of process measures to track: 1. Activities – number of meetings with legislators, – PSAs aired 2. Participants

11. If the strategy is…A possible measure might be… Merchant training in RBS Number of merchants attending the training (people served) Percentage of merchants who complete the training (people served) Compliance checks Number of attempts to buy alcohol by youth (services delivered) A public awareness campaign explaining social host liability laws to adults Number of PSAs aired (services delivered) Number of parents attending an information session (people served)

What are the demographic characteristics of the participants? What are the participants’ levels of satisfaction with the selected strategy ? Are resources to implement the strategy available? What is the staff’s perception of the selected strategy ?

14. OUTCOME EVALUATION

15. How well did the strategies affect the contributing factors/intervening variables/priorities? Outcomes are changes that occur as a result of implementing a strategy. Short-term Outcomes are changes of the focus population at the end of the strategy. Examples include changes in knowledge, attitudes, and skills. Long-term Outcomes are the ultimate effects of the strategies. For example, the reduction in past 30 day alcohol use in youth age 12-20.

16. Examples of Outcomes Measures Reduced access to alcohol by underage youth More responsible beverage training Decline in number of alcohol licenses issued Decline in the number of conditional use permits utilized when granting alcohol licenses Increase in the number of alcohol outlets in compliance Increase in the number of public events that restrict access to alcohol
