The ethical practice in grant writing is to establish a firm understanding of the problem and potential solutions, and to communicate that in a clear and concise manner. Creating a logic model for your project will help you accomplish this clean, concise communication tool. Our logic model will begin with identifying the problem in a clear statement.
Once you have identified the problem and completed the problem statement, use the Logic Model Template [DOCX] linked in the Resources to do the following:
Identify two root causes leading to the identified problem.
Support each root cause with 2 data sources. The data should legitimize the root cause and its connection to the problem.
Describe 2 local conditions that align to each of the data sources identified (4 sources total).
Support each local condition with a data source (existing or potential). The data should legitimize the local condition and its connection to the root cause.
Identify 2 strategies to address each of the local conditions identified in step 3.
Finally, for each strategy identified above, create a measurable outcome. This outcome should increase or decrease by some percentage for each year of the grant.
