Focus on What’s NOT Already Covered in LGS Several moving parts Narrative APR Rubric LGS Presentation
Where to Focus Your LGS Presentation • Don’t simply repeat the information in the narrative or APR Rubric!!! • Utilize the personal note sheet as a guide (see next slide) • Speak from a data perspective Use all data sources to your advantage: • Highlight positives • Explain any negatives • Emphasize successes The next slides are suggestions on items to consider in your LGS Presentation
Know Your Numbers • Understand your demographics • Be able to explain your outcomes • When addressing cost effectiveness, explain your formula • Know your data! • Illustrate effectiveness with data, not anecdotal information • Think about what exactly you want the audience to know about your program • Remember, you have 5 minutes
Focus on the Program • Briefly explain the mission of your whole organization to show capacity for this program • Include full organization numbers only to show capacity, but be clear about where the numbers came from • Spend most of your time on the specific program for which you are seeking funding
What Makes Your Program Unique? • What specific role does your organization fulfill in the struggle to end homelessness? • Why is this role important? • Why does your program serve the people it does? • How is your program consistent with the Blueprint and CoC? • What special strengths does your program offer?
What Makes Your Program Unique? • Don’t tell us your program is the only program of its kind unless you are really sure it is. • Please don’t try to convince the audience your work is harder than everyone else’s. We know none of this is easy. • Why does your program serve more or fewer people than some other programs?
DO’s & DON’Ts Do… • Develop your material in advance • Check statistics for accuracy. • Review presentation with a colleague and/or others • Practice it with a timer & an audience, if possible • Project your voice • Make eye contact • Conclude on time 5 minutes goes fast and will be enforced.
DO’s & DON’Ts Don’t... • Apologize for nervousness • Read your presentation word for word • Waste time with multiple presenters • Forget that it is a 5 minute timed presentation • Forget that there is 5 minutes TOTAL allowed for Q & A
