Logic Evaluation Model



Narrative or graphical depiction of processes in real life that communicate the underlying assumptions upon which an activity is expected to lead to a specific result.  Logic modes illustrate a sequence of cause-and-effect relationships - a systems approach to communicate the path toward a desired result.

Benefits
Provides a clear understanding of what services are being implemented, what goals you hope to achieve, and how the success of the program will be measured

Offers a concise, easily understood visual summary of the overall program

Situation: communicate the problem, serving as a baseline for comparison at project completion

Inputs: things invested in the program

Outputs: things the program does and the people it reaches

Short Term Outcomes: what happened as a result of the program

Intermediate Term Outcomes: Changes that follow short term outcomes

Long Term Outcomes: Conditions are changed overall

Possible External Influences on Program: important to define because they may influence the program overall

Evaluations: Need, Process, Outcome, Impact
