Does participation in 21st CCLC programs appear to contribute to improved academic outcomes? • Does participation in 21st CCLC programs affect other behaviors and positive youth assets (e.g., regular school and program attendance, on-time advancement to the next grade level, homework completion, positive behaviors, and healthy youth development)?

13. What is a Logic Model? A logic model: • Provides a simplified picture of the relationships between the program inputs and the desired outcomes of the program – A set of IF-THEN statements • Is a framework for: • Planning • Implementation • Monitoring • Evaluation • Is comprised of goals, objectives, activities, outputs, outcomes and impacts. For the Oregon 21st CCLC Grant, the logic model is a tool used to systematically connect program strategies, activities and intended outcomes.
