Resource Assessment - Finding the Gaps
Once you have analyzed each resource by asking the seven questions on the last page, you need to review the answers for each resource and then answer the following questions:
- Are the risk and protective factors that you identified as priorities through your community assessment being adequately addressed by existing programs and services?
- If not, can existing programs and services be changed and/or modified to enhance their effectiveness? If so, how? (For ideas, review Guiding Principles for Effective Programs.)
- Do additional programs and/or services need to be selected and implemented to fill in gaps identified through the resource assessment? If yes, continue to Step 5 and Step 6 of the web-site:
