| Brief Description of the
Project |
This project will facilitate five demonstration
projects implementing incremental measurement systems for individual, family, and
community change as a result of local agency programming. Of these two sites, one is rural
and public (operated by county), and the other is urban (Pittsburgh) and private. Three
sites are Head Start agencies. All sites operate a wide variety of programs, and although
they are successful in developing resources for serving significant numbers of low-income
people in their communities, they all report a lack of public recognition for their role.
The sites will receive technical assistance and training for board members, staffs,
sub-contractors, and county-level human service collaborators, as appropriate, to help
agencies adopt measuring systems to meet their needs. CAAP will assure that the adopted
measurement systems will yield data that can be aggregated into a template that will
specify categories of in-crisis, vulnerable (at-risk), safe, stable (self-sufficient) and
thriving, as specified by the CSBG Task Force on Monitoring and Assessment. |

| Brief Description of the
Project |
The Community Action Association of Pennsylvania
(CAAP) will continue and expand work with seven demonstration protects to implement
incremental measurement systems for individual, family, and community change as a result
of local agency programming. The second stage of the project will assist the agencies to
complete the transition to ROMA by examining needs for management redefinition and
reorganization, providing information and guidance on agency reorganization or
reinvention, assisting sub- contract agencies to develop performance based contracts, and
focus all agencies on defining results for community outcomes. |
