You want to have a good system to track data so that you can use it easily in your analysis process. Here are some things to think about when you are tracking data.



Do we have a good system to track data?
14. What are the deliverables that we can communicate to the grantor? Are they outputs or outcomes?
15. How many people can we serve with the grant? How many units of service can we provide?
16. Can we clearly communicate statistics? Will charts or graphs help us pictorially represent our impact on the community?
17. Are we consistently reporting our statistics to the community? Number of people served; units of service. Is our definition of units of service consistent?
18. Are we already collecting data for other purposes that can be used for grant seeking purposes?
19. Are we protecting the integrity of the data? How is the information verified?
20. Can we use national, state, or local statistics to further communicate the benefit of the grant?
