Cross-site Evaluation Logic Model

We developed a logic model that guided the evaluation, which suggested that the coalitions’ Year 1 activities (i.e., coalition formation, conduct CHNA, develop CHIP) would lead to changes in community readiness and organizational and community capacity to address health equity. Further, implementation of policy, system, and environmental changes would reduce gaps in structural determinants of health. In parallel, programs and services offered would provide short-term relief and support immediate needs that result from persistent inequities in access to health resources. The closure of gaps in the structural determinants of health and health behaviors would ultimately lead to improved health status overall and among priority groups.
