Training & Technical Assistance
Training and technical assistance are key components of the Logic Model Technical Assistance Project. Tutorials and narrated presentions are offered at this site for those wishing to utilize the tools of the national evaluation to develop and assess their community-based systems of care.

- Improve their communication both internally and externally
- Organize their work cohesively
