Document Summary

Important to present information on logical models because of their usefulness in the implementation process. Important for the stage of program development because they can help identify the steps that must be taken to implement and manage successful programs. Logical model is a road map showing the connections among the key components of a program. Logical models can take many different shapes (linear, circular, lists) and be presented in various levels of detail (simple, complex) but all depict the relationship and linkages of various components in a graphic display of boxes and arrows. Includes 4 components: inputs (or resources), activities (or interventions or strategies), outputs (or evidence of activities), and outcomes (or results or effects) The inputs in a logic model are the resources (or infrastructure) that are used to plan, implement, and evaluate a program. The activities in a logic model are the interventions or strategies used in a program to bring about change.
