Community Assessment Framework:
Make Sense of the Data
To create an overall assessment of the baseline data
in each of the five core areas, pay close attention to
the following factors:
|
1.
|
General strengths and weaknesses in the community
|
|
2.
|
The extent, availability, and accessibility of
key programs and services in each area
|
|
3.
|
The extent to which these programs and services
serve all children
|
|
4.
|
Major gaps in services that are apparent
|
|
5.
|
How issues of race and class might affect or explain
any of the gaps in services or barriers to success
|
|
6.
|
The potential for community programs and services
to be linked to public school systems and the potential
of school programs and services to be linked with
the community
|
Based on the strengths, weaknesses, and availability of services, make an overall
assessment of the current level of school-community partnerships in
your community.
