DEFINING, MEASURING, AND
COMMUNICATING SUCCESS!
The competition for funding in the Federal budget is increasing
all of the time, and difficult choices are being made of whom to
fund at what funding levels. The Office of the Management and Budget
is using a Program Assessment and Rating Tool (PART) to determine
the President's budget request to Congress for all Federal programs,
including Centers for Independent Living and Statewide Independent
Living Councils.
The PART measures both the efficiency and effectiveness of programs
and to what degree significant outcomes are achieved. Independent
living programs are being rated on program design, performance expectations,
and performance achievements.
Are you ready to succeed in this new environment?
When you attend this session, you will:
1. Learn more about the PART, the rating process, how it is being
applied to CILs, and why it is so important to your future.
2. Find out how the Federal Government is measuring your success
and what their expectations are for your performance.
3. Understand the critical differences between outputs (what you
do) and outcomes (what you achieve) and why outcomes are considered
most important.
4. Discuss the implications of these new outcome measures on your
CIL, your Board, your staff, and your consumers, and what these
measures may mean for your program operations and outreach strategies.
5. Figure out how you can respond to these expectations and have
even greater success.
6. Know how high-performing organizations create a performance culture,
and gain ideas for infusing staff with a commitment to the achievement
of these critical outcome measures.
7. To identify meaningful ways to communicate your performance to
key stakeholders and your community to get credit for the great
work you do.
