Outcomes Diary Tool
To effectively monitor changes as they are occurring, a simple tool has been developed called an Outcomes Diary. The diary, developed and used by the Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction (HRPR), a cross-sector community collaborative planning table, was used to document progress across three domains: changes impacting individuals and families; changes in community capacity and changes in policy and systems.
