    2. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes If you dont know where youre going, you will end up somewhere else. - Yogi Berra

    3. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes A logic model is a visual depiction of how a system theoretically works to foster change. Logic models are usually diagrammed on one page using shapes which are connected by arrows, which indicate dependent relationships.

    4. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Purpose of a Logic Model To provide stakeholders with an easy-to-read road map that connects your planned work with your intended results.

    5. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes

    9. Program Example: Congregate Meal Site

    10. Partnership Example: Better Nutritional Health for Seniors!

    11. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Realistic Expectations Requires vision and patience Limit to 1 page; be succinct It takes time to develop typically 5 15 drafts before finalized Small group is best for development lead person input/feedback from key stakeholders

    12. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Focus Efforts on Accomplishing Short and Intermediate Outcomes

    13. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes

    14. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Considerations Essential Limit to 1 page Easy to read Correct categorization Components: Inputs, Activities, Outputs, Outcomes Use of arrows to indicate logical relationships Optional Additional components: Assumptions, Impacts Vertical vs. horizontal layout Shapes used Component labels used (e.g inputs vs. resources; activities vs. strategies)

    15. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Dont include information that can be reported in other documents: Vision Mission Timeline Goals Objectives Indicators Data Sources Organizational Structure

    16. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Communication with stakeholders Illustrate your theory of change Create a shared understanding Help with program design and planning Guide implementation Keep partners eyes on the prize Evaluating your progress and impact

    17. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Reviewing Logic Models Is the project clearly identified? Is the logic model easy to read? Do you have a clear understanding of what the project is going to do? Do you have a clear understanding of what the project is trying to accomplish?

    18. (c) 2002, Stacy Barnes Reviewing Logic Models Are inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes correctly categorized? Can you make an If..Then statement anywhere you see an arrow? Does the connection seem logical to you? If you point to any one outcome, can you find one or more activities that are targeted at making this happen?
