  1. Using a Logic Model to Describe Your Approach

  2. CTAS Project/Program Design & Implementation Requirements • Describe the goals and objectives of the project • Provide a complete description of the project design and implementation • Provide details about the specific tasks and activities that are necessary to accomplish each project goal and objective • Discuss overall how the project will improve the functioning of Tribal justice systems and/or assist Tribal communities to address issues relating to crime, community and victim safety

  3. Program Logic Model Tool • Step 1: State problems • Step 2: Develop goal statements that address your stated problems • Step 3: Identify the CTAS purpose area that your goal is related to • Step 4: Identify strategies and activities to address stated problems and meet goals • Step 5: Uncover underlying assumptions in your strategies and how these strategies will address problems and goals • Step 6: Identify short- and long-term outcome objectives that will help you address your problems and achieve your goals

  4. Step 1: Defining Problems • Data identifying the community’s problems that will be addressed by your program • Use information/data gathered from the needs assessment

  5. Problem Statement Examples • 72% of violent crimes committed in the community were against Native women and girls

  6. Step 2: Defining Goals • Goals are broadstatements that describe the longer-term impacts that you are trying to achieve • Goal statements address the community needs that the project will target • Try to match your goals to goal statements described under the purpose areas

  7. Goal Statement Examples • To decrease the number of violent crimes (sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking) committed against Indian women and girls

  8. Step 3: CTAS Purpose Area • Select the CTAS Purpose Area that best fits your goals • Refer to the CTAS Purpose Area Worksheet for assistance

  9. CTAS Purpose Areas • PA #1: Public Safety & Community Policing -Tribal Resources Grant Program (TRGP) … COPS Office • A-Hiring • B- Equipment/Training • PA #2: Comprehensive Planning Demonstration Program….BJA/OJP • PA #3: Justice Systems, and Alcohol and Substance Abuse BJA/OJP • A - Tribal Courts Assistance Program (TCAP) • B - Indian Alcohol and Substance Abuse Prevention Program (IASA)

  10. CTAS Purpose Areas • PA #4: Corrections & Correctional Alternatives on Tribal Lands Program (CSCATL)….BJA/OJP • PA # 5: Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program (TSASP)…. OVW • PA #6: Violence Against Women Tribal Governments Program….OVW • PA #7: Children’s Justice Act Partnerships for Indian Communities….OVC/OJP

  11. CTAS Purpose Areas • PA #8: Comprehensive Tribal Victim Assistance Program….OVC/OJP • PA #9: Juvenile JusticeTribal Juvenile Accountability Discretionary Program (TJADG)….OJJDP/OJP • PA #10: Tribal Youth Program (TYP)….OJJDP/OJP

  12. Step 4: Specifying Your Strategies & Activities • The strategy is the overall method used to create change in your community and accomplish your goals. • Your activities are the steps that you will take to implement each strategy. • Program strategies and activities answer: • What are we going to be doing? • When are we going to do it? • How much are we going to do? • To whom are we going to do it?

  13. Strategies & Activities Example Strategy: Review and update village policies and procedures regarding safety procedures for victims of domestic violence Activities: Compare existing policies and procedures to state-recommended policies and procedures. Make recommendations to the village administrative director for changes in village policies and procedures. IRA Council changes policies and procedures to improve safety procedures for victims of domestic violence.

  14. Strategies & Activities Example Strategy: Conduct Cross Training for victim service staff on screening, intake, and referral processes to better serve the victims of domestic violence in the village Activities: Identify staff from each family service program to receive training. Conduct an assessment of gaps in knowledge of processes and protocols around domestic violence. Identify the appropriate trainers based on the gaps assessment findings. Schedule and advertise the training. Conduct a pre- and post- knowledge survey for the training. Hold the training for 10 staff.

  15. Program Logic Model

  16. Step 5: Specifying Your “If-Then” Statements • Your “If-Then” Statements help clarify the underlying assumptions of your program • Why and how program strategies are expected to lead to your goals and desired changes

  17. “If-Then” Statements Example • IF village policies and procedures regarding safety procedures for victims of domestic violence are reviewed and updated… THEN more victims of domestic violence will receive the services they need to escape the violent situations they are in.

  18. “If-Then” Statements Example cont. • IF more victims of domestic violence receive the services they need to escape the violent situations they are in… THEN these women and girls will be less likely to become victims of violent crimes.

  19. “If-Then” Statements Example cont. • IFthese women and girls are less likely to become victims of violent crimes… THEN the number of violent crimes committed against Indian women and girls will decrease.

  20. Step 6: Specifying Your Outcome Objectives • Outcome objectives are specific statements that identify what will change for whom. • Short-termoutcome objectives are the immediate program effects that you expect to achieve. • Long-term outcome objectives are the long-term or ultimate effects of the program.

  21. Outcome Objectives Examples • Short-term outcome objective:There will be a 25% increase in the number of victims of domestic violence who receive services to escape their violent situations. • Long-term outcome objective:There will be a 10% decrease in the number of violent crimes committed against Indian women and girls.
