Continuous Progress Strategic Services developed the Advocacy Progress Planner online from a Composite Logic Model built by a team of evaluation experts led by Julia Coffman of the Harvard Family Research Project. Our tool can serve both planners and evaluators. The Composite Logic Model is a more complex and robust tool designed for evaluation and planning experts to deeply analyze a campaign. To learn more about the ways the Composite Logic Model can be used, consider consulting these PDFs. The first is a one-page layout of the offline Composite Logic Model. You can also download an annotated demonstration use of a Composite Logic Model used to plan a campaign and one used to evaluate a campaign.
We've collected all the definitions that pop up as you use the site into a single file. It can be useful as a reference, especially when you share hard copies of your logic model with colleagues. Download the pdf here.
Funding for the original composite logic model came from The California Endowment, the Annie E Casey Foundation and Atlantic Philanthropies. The California Endowment funded the creation of the online version. The Advocacy Progress Planner was designed by Heather Gardner-Madras and built using Drupal by Dagwood Reeves.
All of us hope that this tool proves useful to you — our users. If you have questions, drop us a line.
