What are the long term and short term results you want?

4

Let's start with the long term results. Look at the work you have done so far in this design your vision, the list

of community assets and resources, and best strategies or approaches for the project. Now, think about the desired

result(s) you want to get out of this project. (Pretend for a moment that you have just finished the project and

you've invited a  staff member and a ministry representative to see the results. What would that look

like?) These major results are the goals for your project. The number of goals will depend on the scope of your

project. Most small projects have only one or two goals.

Project goals 

  restate the vision and approach in terms of what is to be accomplished;

  define the long term results or changes that the project will bring about;

  are realistic and include an overall time frame.

Write your goal(s) in the space provided below and continue on the following page as needed. Leave the sections

for  objectives  and  signs of success  blank for now.
