SUMMARY:Webcast: Vision 20/20: Model Evaluation Measures for Preventio
 n Programs
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Jim Crawford, Dr. Angela Mickalide and Dr. R
 onda C. Zakocs\nAs departments seek to cut costs associated with respo
 nse to meet tighter budgets, the importance of fire prevention is neve
 r more apparent. However, it’s extremely difficult to demonstrate th
 e impact of public education and other prevention efforts, so funding 
 for prevention is often insecure.\nPrevention programs can significant
 ly enhance their security by demonstrating results, but how? In this W
 ebcast, Jim Crawford, a project manager for the national fire preventi
 on steering committee Vision 20/20, will outline two distinct ways to 
 evaluate fire prevention programs:\n\n\nHolistically: Government audit
 ors (performance and financial) tend to evaluate fire prevention progr
 ams using measures of overall performance, including workload, so that
  they can begin to understand how many people it takes to perform a gi
 ven job (e.g., fire code compliance inspections or investigations).\nI
 ndividually:Injury control specialists, epidemiologists and the medica
 l community tend to evaluate specific prevention programs by asking qu
 estions such as, \"Does this program meet specified goals and is it pr
 oducing measurable results that we may rely upon to determine which pr
 ograms work - and which need improvement?\"\n\n\nRegardless of their d
 ifferences, both approaches are focused on results. This Webcast will 
 provide real-world examples of both types of evaluation programs. Youâ
 €™ll also learn some ways fire prevention personnel can begin to docum
 ent the results of their programs, compare them with other national an
 d regional programs, and build a case for their continued existence.\n
