This includes front-end program analysis using logic models or empowerment evaluation techniques to describe outcomes in initial applications. A community review team comprised of local experts, consumers and community advisory committee members rate applications for recommendation to the Executive Director and Governing Board. The Children's Board shifted from accepting applications once a year to ongoing funding to be more responsive to community need. These revisions are based on rates of spending as we adapt to the community's changing needs.

Staff provides technical assistance to support program objectives during the year.
Feedback from providers and staff yield valuable input each year contributing to the modification of our funding plan. A list of continuation programs for Fiscal Year 2001 is available upon request. 1205 E. 8th Avenue, Tampa, FL 33605 . About Us . Director's Report .
