...Scenario Evaluation Plan Deanna Potter HSM 270 Septemeber 3, 2015 Florence Wisn Scenario Evaluation Plan One of the most important steps that need to be developed and implemented in a program is the evaluation plan. The evaluation plan will tell if a program has been a failure or success. Having the right tools with accurate reporting, plus making sure no bases has played a role in the evaluation, will tell you if the programs missions and goals have been achieved or not. PEACE Domestic Violence agencies have a purpose, and the purpose of the Peace Domestic Violence Agency is helping provide the victims with support, shelter, advocacy and education. Giving the victims and those who are affected by domestic violence empowerment will also help them to break away from the abuse. There is a wide range of evaluations that can be used, and it would be best to do some research on the different types to see what works best for the agency or organization. The evaluation plan that would work best for the PEACE Domestic Violence Agency would be a project-wide evaluation with an empowerment approach. A project-wide evaluation will work with the agency's domestic violence program because it not only involves the victims it also involves the staff in the evaluation development and implementation processes. With PEACE being committed to reducing domestic violence and sexual assaults, they can do that by educating the victims and the community. Education will help make a difference...

Population Domestic and sexual violence is a global issue that does not discriminate culturally, socio-economically, race, gender, or age. Turning Point offers programs, shelter, and means for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. A domestic and sexual violence situation occurs when the abuser and the victim have an association, contrasting a stranger attack. Nearly 25% of surveyed women and 7.6% of surveyed men said that they were raped and/or physically assaulted by a current or former spouse, cohabitating partner, or date at some time in their lifetime. According to these estimates 1.5 million women are raped or physically assaulted by an intimate partner (US Department of Justice, 2000). Programs and Interventions Turning Point provides programs that address the origin of domestic violence and sexual assault. Turning Point offer services and interventions through the following: * 24-Hour Crisis Line-which provides assistance, information, and referrals from professionally trained interns 24 hours a day. *...

...Program Planning and Evaluation Paper The PEACE Domestic Violence Agency is an agency that serves the community of Portland. Oregon. This agency is one that thrives to break the cycle of both domestic and sexual abuse amongst men, women, and children. They are a nonprofit agency that depends on funding from two main sources, The Small Grants Program and The Investor Program. This agency depends on funding from outside sources in the form of grants, two to be precise. Now, because they use grants from these sources for financial assistance, they have to use program planning. Program planning is a multi-step process that generally begins with the definition of the problem and development of an evaluation plan. An evaluation plan is basically a part of a grant proposal that gives information to improve a project during development, in which funding is needed. Since this agency requires grants for funding, program evaluation is needed to collect and analyze information to answer questions about projects and policies about their effectiveness and efficiency. Program evaluation is a detailed assessment of the outcome of a program, against established measures or expected results to determine if it achieved its objectives. ("What is program evaluation? definition and meaning," n.d.) Both program planning and program evaluation are needed because they are both steps in the larger process of program development. Within this specific agency, program planning is defining the issue...

...Create Your Own Ethical Framework We confront moral dilemmas daily in our personal and professional settings. In the process of making these ethical decisions, some truly life-altering, it is beneficial to have in place a well-grounded moral system or “ethical framework”, to help guide us in making our everyday decisions, both as professionals and in our private and social lives. The ethical stance that best fits my moral compass is teleological, specifically, utilitarianism, which holds “that an action is right if it promotes the maximum good” (Reamer 2006, p. 66). Teleological moral systems are characterized by a concentration on the consequences of any action. According to this position, in order to make the proper moral choices, a person must first attempt to establish what the results of their choices will be. If the consequence of their choices result in the right outcome, then the action is considered moral; if the consequences of their choices result in the wrong outcome, than the action is considered immoral. Social works ethical standards have evolved into a comprehensive guide detailing ethical practice and are found in the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics (National Association of Social Workers (NASW) 2008). A profession’s openness to establishing standards that will assist practitioners in monitoring their conducts correctness is can be seen as a sign of true professional competence. These standards are created to highlight those ethical issues...

...Letter of Intent Mary Funder, Ph. D. Executive Director United States Funding Society Dear Dr. Funder, Planned Parenthood Organizations have been dealing with sexual health related issues such as pregnancies and sexual health education dating back to 1916. Throughout the years since then many things have changed, and many of the changes came from Margaret Sanger, who at that time opened many doors for women back then. Women that were not allowed to do anything about unwanted pregnancies, such as using the birth control pill. In the 1960’s the birth control pill was put on shelves and one in every four women were taking in. As the years continued many other aspects would change as well. The Planned Parenthood organization are in place to help families, women, men, adolescent, and children with education, sexual health questions, and even deal with other pregnancy services. The services will come to many that cannot afford proper health care to little or no cost at all. The Planned Parenthood organization’s mission statement is as follows: “A Reason for being”. The mission statement is in place to show individuals of any race, gender, or ethnicity that help is available to them, and each of the individuals that come into the organization all over the world will be free from any harassment or judgment. Respect and values plays an important role within the Planned Parenthood organizations, and each of the qualified employees or volunteers plan to keep it that way. ...

...Ida Jean Orlando Ida Jean Orlando's Deliberative Nursing Process is set in motion by the behavior of the patient. According to the theory, all patient behavior can be a cry for help, both verbal and non-verbal, and it is up to the nurse to interpret the behavior and determine the needs of the patient. The Deliberative Nursing Process has five stages: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. In the assessment stage, the nurse completes a holistic assessment of the patient's needs. The diagnosis stage uses the nurse's clinical judgment about health problems. The planning stage addresses each of the problems identified in the diagnosis. In the implementation stage, the nurse begins using the nursing care plan. In the evaluation stage, the nurse looks at the progress of the patient toward the goals set in the nursing care plan. This is the ADPIE that we use every day. Nursing care has to be flexible. Not only does a nursing care plan depend on the needs of the patient at the time of admittance, but it also needs to be able to change when and if any complications come up during the treatment and recovery process. Ida Jean Orlando's Deliberative Nursing Process directly addresses this need for flexibility, and helps nurses focus on the patient rather than simply sticking to a nursing care plan no matter what.

...September 16, 2014 Instructor: Bonita Comer 2. One of the most important tasks of a successful program planning process is to know exactly what is needed and clear, concise grant writing is the way to achieve this. A grant proposal is a written program plan aimed at obtaining financial assistance from a funding source. Understanding the programs target population and that populations needs are a vital part of a successful grant proposal. “In writing a grant proposal, the applicant agency is making an argument that it has the understanding of the identified problems and knows how to address the problems. The grant proposal is then the agency’s plan of intervention that follows the argument Moore (1998)” (Chapter 2, Practical Grant Writing and Program Evaluation, Yuen/Terao - © 2003 Brooks/Cole). A grant proposal consists of three parts: 1. a group of premises. 2. a conclusion. 3. An implicit claim. The premises are the beliefs that support the program proposal. The conclusion is the services the program intends to offer and the claim is the expected outcome of the services provided by the program. Usually the first step in grant writing is a needs assessment. Qualitative and quantitative are both ways to identify the needs of the program and those that should be expressed in the grant proposal. The grant proposal process normally begins with a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a Request for Applications (RFA) announcement from funding agencies. Dates and due...

...Program Planning and Evaluation Paper Kendra Hammond HSM/270 June 16, 2013 William Latta When creating a human services organization, program planning and program evaluation is vital. For a successful organization one can not exist without the other. Program planning entails researching, making goals, setting objectives, and answers who, what, and why questions. The development of program planning helps establish what resources will be needed to achieve the goals and objectives of the human services organization. The finances and budget are also included in program planning. In the program plan it should include what is the problem that is being addressed, why this problem exists, who is the target population, and where the target population is demographically sited. When creating a program plan, it requires logical thinking and a high level of information processing. The plan should be able to provide information on the services that the program wishes to provide to their clients. Throughout the thought process of the plan, the program should consider and include in the plan what obstacles they may encounter and ways to overcome them. The program planning stage in creating a human services organization is essential, because it determines the budget, the timeline, and sets expectations for the entire organization. The heart of this stage is how the organizations product and services will be developed and delivered. Program planning should be done thoroughly and carefully...
