In this workshop, you will define goals for your organization or program, develop a roadmap for it, and understand how to build and communicate your strategy based on evidence. Whether you are starting with a long-standing initiative or a brand new idea for a program, this workshop will help take the mystery out of program design and logic models, and ensure that you have the tools you need to refine your strategy and incorporate all of your stakeholders into the design process. Next, you’ll be ready for Part 2 (Developing a Measurement & Evaluation Plan) and Part 3 (The 3Rs of Grants).
