Stakeholder Involvement

Stakeholder Involvement

 For a program to be effective, it is essential for members of the target population to be involved in developing the mission, goals, and objectives.
 

Who would you reach out to for developing your program? Are there other community organizations or business partners that you would like to connect with during this process? How would you facilitate the involvement of various stakeholders? What challenges do you think you might encounter?
 

In this Discussion, you and your colleagues address the myriad issues related to stakeholder involvement during the creation of a program’s mission, goals, and objectives.
 

To prepare:

  • Review      the information presented in this week’s Learning Resources and conduct      additional research of your own to learn about programs that have      successfully involved various stakeholders in the target population.

· Chapter 7, “Setting Goals and Objectives”

Chapter 6 introduces the notion of developing the program hypothesis as a critical feature of program design and a precursor to setting goals and objectives, which is addressed in Chapter 7. Both of these topics serve as a critical link between the earlier phases of problem analysis and needs assessment and the forthcoming design of services and program evaluation.
