ElementsProgram DesignWith the continuation of Assignment 2, it is important to notice
and appreciate the congruity provided through systematic program planning and
evaluation. A well-developed program design facilitates the alignment necessary for an
effective intervention, enabling the program to address the problem through appropriate
services that–ideally!–result in positive outcomes.This week you further delineate your
program design, crafting elements visually and creating a time line using a Gantt chart.To
prepare for this week’s section of Assignment 2:Refer to the information presented in
this week’s Learning Resources as you consider all of the elements of your
program.Begin to visualize or draft a graphical representation of your program based
on the theory or model you have chosen (Week 3 [see week 3 discussion paper
attached]) as demonstrated in Chapter 8 of Designing and Managing Programs. If your
theory or model of choice does not have such a visual representation associated with it
then you will need to create one.Also, in this design, state your mission, goal(s), and
objectives for your program. State all activities that will assist in meeting each
objective and outline this in a Gantt chart with time lines for implementing
the activities.By tomorrow Friday 01/04/19 by 6 pmIn APA format with a minimum of 6
scholarly references, write a 3- to 5-page paper and create accompanying documents that
address the following level 1 and 2 headers:1) Stakeholder Involvement in Developing
Mission Statement, Goals, and Objectives (developed in Week 5)a) Explain why it is
important for representatives of your target population to be involved in developing the
goals and objectives for the program.b) Identify which stakeholders you would involve in
the planning process and discuss two or more strategies for facilitating their
involvement.2) Program Design (developed this week 6, with elements developed in Week
5 [see week 6 discussion paper attached])a) Create a visual representation of your program
design (e.g., a table or graph) that includes the program’s mission statement, goal(s),
objectives, and activities to meet the
objectives (http://www.ganttchart.com/Examples.html)b) Develop a Gantt chart with time

objectives.P.S. Always include an introduction ending with a purpose statement and
conclusion as required per APA format guidelines. Refer to previous attached papers in the
file area to complete this assignment.Required ReadingsHodges, B. C., & Videto, D. M.

Mission Statements, Goals, and Objectives”The authors provide guidance for developing a
mission statement, program goals, and objectives in this chapter.Chapter 4 outlines the
program planning steps and emphasizes the importance of including your target population
and additional stakeholders in the design process. Chapter 5 reemphasizes this focus on the
target audience as the authors discuss the use of marketing principles in relation to
program development and implementation. Chapter 8 discusses the importance of utilizing
strategies that are aligned with the theoretical foundations of a program and presents
recommendations for developing suitable activities. In Chapter 9, the authors note that even
implementation requires planning; they provide guidance for implementation planning and
advise how this can also support evaluation.Kettner, P. M., Moroney, R. M., & Martin, L. L.

the notion of developing the program hypothesis as a critical feature of program design and
a precursor to setting goals and objectives, which is addressed in Chapter 7. Both of these
topics serve as a critical link between the earlier phases of problem analysis and needs
assessment and the forthcoming design of services and program evaluation.Review Chapter
6, “Selecting the Appropriate Intervention Strategy”Chapter 8, “Designing Effective
Programs”Review Chapter 6, which discusses the connection between the program
hypothesis and service decisions. Chapter 8 addresses how to design elements of a program
systematically in order to promote consistency and attend to the necessary details.
