Learning objectives

• Increased understanding of logic models
• Increased ability to create a logic model for
  your MYAP

How we will proceed today

• Discuss slides
• Questions and interaction
• Examples

3
What is a logic model?
Its your roadmap

• Description of a program
• Graphic representation of what is expected to be
  achieved and how it is expected to work
• Called program theory or program action
• Sequence of steps a logical chain of if-then
  relationships that link investments to activities
  to results.

• Whether we realize it or not we are logic
  modeling all the time.
• Logic models can be applied to almost anything we
  do or are engaged in.
• It is just putting structure to a way of
  thinkinga graphic representation of our mental
  processes that focus on achieving outcomes.

Intermediate
State Health Department and Partners
Youth are exposed to anti-tobacco/pro-health messa
ges and fewer pro-tobacco messages
Counter marketing
Increased knowledge, awareness, and skills, and
changes in attitudes
Reduced initiation among youth
Students receive tobacco prevention education in
school
School-based prevention
Smoking is de-normalized
Youth advocacy groups are formed youth are
mobilized
Community mobilization
Reduced tobacco- related morbidity and mortality
Tobacco sales to minors are restricted and
enforced
Decreased access
Decreased tobacco- related disparity
Policy and regulatory action
Increased price on cigarettes through tax
Targeted to disparate populations

Regardless of format, what do logic models have
in common?

• They show activities that lead to outcomes
• They show a chain of outcomes short, medium,
  long-term
• They show relationships/connections that make
  sense (are logical). Arrows are used to show the
  connections (the if-then relationships)
• They are understandable communicate easily
• A picture is worth a thousand words

12
Seems like a lot of workwhy do these logic
models?

• Lets hear from coalition coordinators

13
Logic models in MYAP

• Start at the end
• How will tobacco use look different in 2006?
• Long Term Outcome (s)
• Then, fill in the steps lay out the logical
  connections - that will achieve the long-term
  outcome(s)
• What are the shorter term outcomes that must be
  achieved to order to reach your ultimate goal?
• Year 1 Objective(s) and Year 2 objectives
• What do you need to do in order to achieve those
  outcomes?
• Strategies/Activities

14

• Creating your MYAP logic model

TIPS

• Create a single logic model that shows all
  priority areas OR create separate logic models
  for each priority area
• Keep logic model simple
• clearly communicates what you hope to accomplish
  and how you will accomplish it
• Show all major linkages connections
• Check Does your logic model make sense?
• Does it show a meaningful initiative?

20
Assumptions

• Youve done your homework logic model is based
  on situational analysis and involvement of key
  stakeholders in identification of desired
  outcomes
• Logic model, if not created by the coalition, is
  understood and has commitment of the coalition

21
How to create a logic model on your computer In
MSWord

• Using the Draw Table function
• Draw one box and use columns and rows as
  necessary
• Table options (such as borders, merge cells) can
  be found under Table in the menu bar
• Can also use the table button at the top of the
  page. This will automatically create a table of
  the size you want
• Can use Drawing Toolbar at the bottom of the page
  to draw arrows

22
How to create a logic model on your computer

• Create a table in Word
• Use the Draw Table function in Word

23
How to create a logic model on your computer In
MSWord

• 2. Using text boxes
• Use text box button in the drawing toolbar
• Add arrows using the arrow button in the drawing
  toolbar
• Auto Shapes also provide valuable tools for
  designing your logic model

24
How to create a logic model on your computer In
PowerPoint

• 3. In Powerpoint under format
• Choose Slide Layout
• Apply Table layout
• Double click to add table on slide
• Follow menu functions much like table function
  in MSWord or add text boxes within the table
