Aligning organizational mission with results

Advancing positive social change requires knowing the results your organization seeks to achieve. Effective frameworks clearly articulate desired results and reflect a collective perception of what engaged partners set out to accomplish together.

 

  • What impact does your organization seek to achieve in the world? 

  • Which results for individuals, families, and communities will demonstrate that your organization's impact is real?

  • Which data and what milestones will be used to measure success?
