Logic Models They really are important.

What is a Logic Model? A road map to describe the sequence of related events connecting the activities of the program with the desired results. A simplified picture of a program, initiative, or intervention. Shows logical relationships among the resources that are invested, the activities that take place, and the benefits or changes that result. (This is often called program theory or the program’s theory of action) It is a “plausible, sensible model of how a program is supposed to work” (Bickman, 1987).

Logic Models: Position Program for Success Program Design and Planning – Planning tool – Examine best practice research Program Implementation – Core of a focused management plan – Monitor and improve programming Program Evaluation and Strategic Reporting – Inform progress toward goals – Advocate for program approach – Teach program stakeholders

Sample Logic Model Inputs - the resources invested that allow us to achieve the desired outputs. Outputs - activities conducted or products created that reach targeted participants or populations. Outputs lead to outcomes. Outcomes - changes or benefits for individuals, families, groups, businesses, organizations, and communities.

Development of Logic Model Determine purpose of logic model –Who will use it? For what? Involve others Set boundaries for logic model –Level of specificity Understand situation Explore research, knowledge base, what others are doing/have done

Things to consider about your program… What IS your program? What does your program do? Who is served? How do they benefit? How would you know that your program is a success?

Sample Logic Model (Parent Centers)

Sample Personnel Development Program - Logic Model A blueprint to enhance understanding of the Program

Sample Technical Assistance & Dissemination Program Logic Model Goal: Improved Outcomes for Children with Disabilities and their Families

Logic Model Exercise

Developing a Logic Model: (Articulate the desired long-term outcomes and work backwards)

Activity Start to sketch out a logic model for your project.
