PART II – SECTION B. STRENGETHENING COMMUNITIES


Performance Measures Requirements


Your grant application must reflect the Performance Measures Requirements established for the Foster Grandparent Program and Senior Companion Program. The performance measures are documented as a required part of the work plans submitted as part of your grant application.


Grants must align with the FGP or SCP Performance Measures Requirements, respectively.


This [LINK] to the FGP Performance Measures Requirements contains definitions, descriptions, and details of these requirements.


This [LINK] to the SCP Performance Measures Requirements contains definitions, descriptions, and details of these requirements.


The unit of measure for Foster Grandparent and Senior Companion Program performance measures requirements is “unduplicated volunteers.” “Unduplicated volunteers” means that each FGP or SCP volunteer is only counted once, even if the volunteer is engaged in more than one activity.


The Strengthening Communities section is addressed in the Work Plan section. Your work plans will be reviewed and assessed on the extent to which each work plan:

  • Describes and demonstrates the community need

  • Articulates a theory of change, meaning how the service activities will address the community needs and how the service activity provides a significant contribution to the outcomes of the work plan that lead to national performance measures outcomes

  • Logically connects all elements together, as described in the Notice.

  • Work Plan output and outcomes align with National Performance Measures Requirements.

  • Work Plan outputs and outcomes are achievable, based on the resources, program design, and volunteers engaged.


For Continuation and Renewal applicants, the most recent required Project Progress Reports and Project Progress Report Lites will be reviewed and assessed on the extent to which

  • Performance Measure outputs and outcomes were reported in alignment with National Performance Measure requirements and data collection plans as stated in approved prior application as submitted

  • The program is achieving its volunteer recruitment goals in the current grant cycle.

PART II – SECTION D. PROGRAM MANAGEMENT


In this section, describe specific plans and strategies for overall management of the FGP or SCP project that you propose. Please focus your narrative on the following:

  • The plans and infrastructure to ensure management of volunteer stations in compliance with FGP or SCP program regulations (such as preventing or identifying prohibited activities).

  • The plans and infrastructure to develop and/or oversee volunteer stations to ensure that volunteers are performing their assigned service activities.

  • Your experience and organizational track record in work plans that lead to national performance measures outcomes


For Continuation and Renewal applicants, the previous project will be reviewed and assessed on the extent to which

  • The project has met deadlines

  • The program demonstrated a pattern of consistent communication and receptiveness to instructions from CNCS over the life of the grant.

PART III– PERFROMANCE MEASURES AND WORK PLANS – eGRANTS WORK PLAN

SECTION


For RSVP Competitive applicants and FGP & SCP Renewals, this section must be completed.


For Continuation Applicants, you MUST UPDATE the continuation grant application to reflect any changes from previous submission to ensure that Performance Measures and Work Plans are aligned to the proposed activities and outcomes in the upcoming year.



PART III – SECTION A.1 ABOUT PLAN REQUIREMENTS (FGP)



  1. About Work Plans

  • A Work Plan is a task plan with action steps to address a specified community need. In the grant application, these Work Plans form the basis for a proposed project plan: the need the volunteers will address, what they will do, what their service should accomplish in the third year of the three-year performance period of the grant.

  • Work Plans follow a standard format.

  • Work Plans capture the focus of the volunteers’ services in standard categories. These include Focus Areas and Service Activities.

  • Your Work Plans should align with the Strengthening Communities Narrative section of this grant application. Work Plans translate the narrative information that you provided into organized task plans that include the inputs (unduplicated volunteers), service activities, outputs, and outcomes. The Work Plans also provide a place for you to set targets for outputs and outcomes.


  1. How many Work Plans are needed?

The number of Work Plans needed is determined by how you place your volunteers, and by the types of service activities they will undertake.


  1. How are Work Plans completed?

Data that you enter into the eGrants Performance Measures Module (PMM) are the basis for your work plans. As you enter data on the community need and select your outcomes, outputs, service activities and other information, the eGrants PMM will build your work plans for you.


The Work Plan Development Worksheets (located in the Appendix) are designed to help you plan your performance measures. These worksheets can help to organize how you will fit your performance measures together with the volunteer activities. We recommend that you use the worksheets and instructions to map out your work plans, and then use the completed worksheets to transfer the information into the eGrants PMM.


4) Definitions of Terms Used in Work Plans


  1. Description of Community Need: The description of the community need must be completed for each output you select. This needs statement should explain the compelling need that will be addressed by the volunteers. When you develop your community need, be sure to:

    • Describe the need in enough detail to convey its importance in the community. Use of local statistics can be helpful to make your case.

    • Describe the consequences of the need going unmet in the community.

    • Describe why Foster Grandparent volunteers can be effective resources to meet the need.

    • Describe the need in a way that is clear to people unfamiliar with your community. Do not assume that other readers have an existing understanding.


  1. Output: Outputs are the immediate results of the volunteers’ services. These are usually counts – numbers of children served, etc. The output is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM.


  1. Service Activity: The service activity (or activities) is the task that the volunteers will perform. The service activity description should explain what the FGP volunteers are doing in a way that shows how they will achieve the outputs and outcomes. Say who the beneficiaries are, and what the volunteers will be doing with the beneficiaries. Say how often volunteers will provide the service and for how long. Say where the service will take place. For each output, you may select more the one service activity. The service activities are selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM. For each service activity selected, the eGrants PMM will create a separate work plan.


  1. Number of Unduplicated Volunteers: This is the proposed number of volunteers who will be performing each service activity. Each volunteer can only be counted once when assigned to a service activity. The volunteer should be counted in the area where he/she will make the most impact – in terms of the type of service or in terms of the scope of service, such as the most number of hours served.


  1. Total Number of Volunteers: Here, you enter the total volunteers engaged in the activities, if you were to assign all of them according to each activity. In this way, volunteers can be counted more than once – for example, if the same volunteer does two different types of activities such as tutoring AND mentoring, you can account for both assignments in this field.



  1. Targets: The target is the number that you anticipate achieving in the third year of the performance period. For example, if you think your volunteers will serve 50 children in Head Start in the third year of the performance period, you would enter 50 as your target.


  1. Instrument used for Tracking Output: This is the tool that will be used for data collection. The Instrument is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM.



  1. Outcome: Outcomes are the longer term or permanent change or improvement expected in the community due to the volunteers and their services. The outcome is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM.



  1. Number of Outcome Volunteers: This is the number of volunteers who must be placed in assignments/activities that lead to outcomes. Please see the appropriate Notice for information about how to calculate or determine the number of outcome volunteers.


  1. Instrument used for Tracking Outcome: This is the tool that will be used for data collection. The Instrument is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM.

The Work Plan Development Worksheets (located in the Appendix) are designed to help you plan your performance measures. These worksheets can help to organize how you will fit your performance measures together with the volunteer activities. We recommend that you use the worksheets and instructions to map out your work plans, and then use the completed worksheets to transfer the information into the eGrants PMM.


  1. Definitions of Terms Used in Work Plans


  1. Description of Community Need: The description of the community need must be completed for each output you select. This needs statement should explain the compelling need that will be addressed by the volunteers. When you develop your community need, be sure to:

    • Describe the need in enough detail to convey its importance in the community. Use of local statistics can be helpful to make your case.

    • Describe the consequences of the need going unmet in the community.

    • Describe why Foster Grandparent volunteers can be effective resources to meet the need.

    • Describe the need in a way that is clear to people unfamiliar with your community. Do not assume that other readers have an existing understanding.



  1. Output: Outputs are the immediate results of the volunteers’ services. These are usually counts – numbers of children served, etc. The output is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM.


  1. Service Activity: The service activity (or activities) is the task that the volunteers will perform. The service activity description should explain what the SCP volunteers are doing in a way that shows how they will achieve the outputs and outcomes. Say who the beneficiaries are, and what the volunteers will be doing with the beneficiaries. Say how often volunteers will provide the service and for how long. Say where the service will take place. For each output, you may select more the one service activity. The service activities are selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM. For each service activity selected, the eGrants PMM will create a separate work plan.


  1. Number of Unduplicated Volunteers: This is the proposed number of volunteers who will be performing each service activity. Each volunteer can only be counted once when assigned to a service activity. The volunteer should be counted in the area where he/she will make the most impact – in terms of the type of service or in terms of the scope of service, such as the most number of hours served.


  1. Number of Outcome Volunteers: This is the number of volunteers who must be placed in assignments/activities that lead to outcomes. Please see the appropriate Notice for information about how to calculate or determine the number of outcome volunteers.


  1. Total Number of Volunteers: Here, you enter the total volunteers engaged in the activities, if you were to assign all of them according to each activity. In this way, volunteers can be counted more than once – for example, if the same volunteer does two different types of activities such as companionship AND transportation, you can account for both assignments in this field.


  1. Targets: The target is the number that you anticipate achieving in the third year of the performance period. For example, if you think your volunteers will serve 50 clients in the third year of the performance period, you would enter 50 as your target.


  1. Instrument used for Tracking Output: This is the tool that will be used for data collection. The Instrument is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM. Give the name of the instrument and briefly describe who will collect the data, and from whom and when it will be collected.


  1. Outcome: Outcomes are the longer term or permanent change or improvement expected in the community due to the volunteers and their services. The outcome is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM. As noted in the requirement sections, a minimum of 10 percent of your total unduplicated volunteers must be in assignments with outcomes


  1. Instrument used for Tracking Outcome: This is the tool that will be used for data collection. The Instrument is selected using the pull down menu in the eGrants PMM. Give the name of the instrument and briefly describe who will collect the data, and from whom and when it will be collected.

You must submit a continuation application, via eGrants, for each year of the award to request additional funding. We will use the distribution of line item amounts proposed for the first year in budgeting for subsequent years unless you submit an application for revising the budget.


Your CNCS State Office will provide instructions for continuation applications. Following receipt of a Notice of Grant Award (NGA), you may submit applications for revision of your budget via eGrants.
