TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Using logic models in a community-based agricultural injury prevention project JO - Public health reports (1974) A1 - Helitzer, Deborah A1 - Willging, Cathleen A1 - Hathorn, Gary A1 - Benally, Jeannie SP - 63 EP - 73 VL - 124 IS - Suppl 1 N2 - The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health has long promoted the logic model as a useful tool in an evaluator's portfolio. Because a logic model supports a systematic approach to designing interventions, it is equally useful for program planners. Undertaken with community stakeholders, a logic model process articulates the underlying foundations of a particular programmatic effort and enhances program design and evaluation. Most often presented as sequenced diagrams or flow charts, logic models demonstrate relationships among the following components: statement of a problem, various causal and mitigating factors related to that problem, available resources to address the problem, theoretical foundations of the selected intervention, intervention goals and planned activities, and anticipated short- and long-term outcomes. This article describes a case example of how a logic model process was used to help community stakeholders on the Navajo Nation conceive, design, implement, and evaluate agricultural injury prevention projects.
