Benefits of Outcome Measurement
• Increased accountability to donors and the community
• Enhance marketing and fundraising messages
• An improved image and greater visibility in the community
• Greater success in retaining, maintaining and/or increasing dollars

“The American public has extended you the right to avoid taxation in exchange for your commitment to create real social value. You owe it to the public to make a real effort to track your performance and report to them on how you are doing in your work.”

Questions that Outcomes Answer
• Did the program achieve is intended goals/impact/etc.?
• How does the program contribute to the agency’s strategic goals?
• Is this program worth the cost?
• Did the program reach the target population?
• How can implementation be improved?
• Is this program still relevant or viable?
• Is what was promised being achieved?
• Is the program working?
• What is the program accomplishing?
• How does this program compare to others?
• Did we reasonably accomplish what we committed to do?
• How have participants changed as a result of our program?

Logic Models
![Page 8: Outputs, Outcomes, and Logic Models](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042515/54845765b4af9f036d8b4a26/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Logic Models: Purpose
What is a Logic Model?• If Then• Visual representation of the program’s intent
Why are Logic Models necessary?• Help to assess the program’s effectiveness.• Illustrate the client’s progress through the
program• Developing a realistic picture of what the
program can expect to accomplish• Helps tell your story and the difference you’re
making

Logic Models: Resources & Activities
9
Resources• Identify all inputs that
make the activities possible.
• List all the “what” and “who” that is necessary to delivering the activities.
• People, materials, meeting space, etc.
Activities• What will participants be
doing?• Prioritize, what activities
will help to achieve the outcomes?

Activity Break: Resources and Activities
Think about a program at your agency to evaluate.
• Needs to have a clear target population.
• Needs to have a clear method of providing services.
• Focus on one for the purposes of this training today.
Fill in the Resources and Activities of your program.
Work in pairs to help each other.

What is outcomes based planning and evaluation?
“Not how many worms the bird feeds its young, but how well the fledgling flies”
United Way of America, 2002
![Page 19: Outputs, Outcomes, and Logic Models](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042515/54845765b4af9f036d8b4a26/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Logic Model Component: Outcomes
• What is an Outcome?
• Outcomes are the benefits/client change for participants during or after their involvement with a program.
• Outcomes may relate to a change in knowledge, skills, attitudes, values, behavior, condition, or status.
• Satisfaction is not an outcome.
Example:
Educators increase the audience’s awareness about signs of child abuse.

Indicators
• What is an Indicator?
• Indicators are specific observable, measurable characteristics or changes that represent achievement of the overall impact.
• Specific statistics calculated to summarize the program’s level of achievement.
Example:
Percent of target audience that remembers key points of lecture.

• What outcomes do you want to see?
• What indicators will determine those outcomes?
• Develop at least one Outcome Statement for your program and share with the group.

• Using the Outcomes statement developed earlier
• Add SMART Criteria
• Fill in the Outcomes column on Logic Model
• Report to Group Examples

Logic Model Components: Impact
Impacts are organizational, community, and/or system level changes expected to result from program activities, which might include improved conditions, increased capacity, and/or changes in the policy arena.
Ex: Improved health and well being in North Texas.

Logic Models: Tips
31
“I think you should be more explicit here in Step Two.”
A common problem is that activities and strategies often do not lead to the desired outcomes.
Check your ‘if-then’ statements and ensure that they make sense and lead to the outcomes you want to achieve.
A logic model makes the connections EXPLICIT.

Activity Break: Logic Model Exercise
• Individually circle what you think needs adjustment
• Share with the group what you identified as problem areas and why
Using the logic model example provided
