From Idea to Impact: A Step-by-Step Framework to Plan, Prove, and Promote Your Nonprofit Programs

Designing a powerful nonprofit program isn’t just about having a great idea, it’s about proving that idea can create real, measurable impact. But for many nonprofit leaders, program planning feels overwhelming, messy, or like something only “grant writers” worry about. Sound familiar?

In this high-impact session, Dr. Victoria Boyd breaks down her refined Logic Model Program Planning Framework, built specifically for nonprofits who want to clearly define outcomes, align their mission with measurable results, and communicate their impact with confidence.

Whether you’re launching a brand-new program, trying to clean up a current one, or preparing for a grant application, this session gives you the tools and clarity to design with purpose, plan with structure, and promote your work with credibility. Based on the Outcome-Based Theory approach, this framework helps even the smallest teams think big, with simple, strategic steps.

What You’ll Walk Away With:

• A step-by-step breakdown of the Logic Model (simplified for real-world use), so you can map out your program clearly from inputs to impact.
• The exact language funders and board members want to hear when evaluating program strength and sustainability.
• A practical worksheet and checklist to apply the framework immediately—no fluff, just action-focused tools.
