A logic model is a framework that helps structure project proposals by clarifying key elements like goals, objectives, and outcomes, ensuring project stability and effectiveness. It aids teams in aligning their understanding, identifying gaps, and enhancing buy-in for successful project planning and execution. Essential components include problem statements, project goals, inputs, and means of verification, guiding teams through implementation and evaluation.

2. What Is a Logic Model?
A logic Model, or Logical Framework Matrix as
it is sometimes called, is a framework for your
proposal. It is a tool to help you think through
all of the key elements of your project to frame
it so you can ensure its stability, soundness,
innovation, and sustainability.

3. Why do I need a Logic Model?
 To ensure that you have all the proposal
elements in place
 To help get everyone on the same page with
the project by thinking it through.
 To more easily see any gaps in your project
idea.

 Problem Statement

 Inputs/Activities

 Measurements/Means ofVerification
 Rationales/Assumptions

6. Logic Models help the Team Think From
a Different Perspective
 People – a grant is (virtually) always a team
process
 Challenge - getting people on board
 Has to be something folks are bound and
determined to do, no matter what
 Something all are committed to doing one
way or another
 What else do people need to work with?
 Buy-in when team is committed and has
committed their “things”
 If not, you probably won't get the grant

7. Logic Models = Good Project Planning
 How to convey the necessity of a project
approach to folks who want resources?
 How do we get people planning in a real way?
 Jump right in, ask questions
 Even if you think you are not using a
logic model, its elements are the things
you would naturally think through while
designing a project

9. Key Project Questions
 Who is the leadership? (Is it you?) Is it
consultative and collaborative?
 What else do you need to work with?
 What do you propose to do and how do you
plan to get it done?
 When and where will the project take place?
 Why is this project important ?
 What impact will it have?
 How many people will be impacted?

11. More Project Planning Questions
 How are you going to show people
you did what you said you were
going to do?
 How are you going to figure out if it
worked? If you made a real impact?
 Final step
 check with the team that the grant
correctly outlines the project plan
