Whether you've done a logic model in the past or are feeling the pressure to try one for the first time, this workshop will provide a friendly environment for discussing & defining just what it is that you do each day in your OST program so you'll be ready to put together the pieces of your logic model and set the foundation for your program evaluation. The workshop will be facilitated by Jennifer Engel from Sarah Heinz House, Chair of the APOST Professional Development Committee and Pilot Participant of the Toolbox project.

APOST Afterschool Advocacy Ambassador Program
Please click here for the flyer.
YOU play an important role in the healthy positive development of youth on a daily basis, right? YOU help children create, learn, dream, solve, cope, care, grow...and so much more, right? YOU understand that your OST program plays a major role in the lives of all the youth and families who depend on it, right? BUT...does the general public, our policymakers, community leaders and other decision makers understand the importance of OST to youth and communities at large? Not quite. It's time for you to become a CHAMPION of OST and advocate on behalf of the youth and families who benefit!
