Please maintain records of this information, as at the end of your Coalition effort (Spring 2006) we will ask you to respond to a short series of questions about your efforts and accomplishments.Included will be questions asking for descriptive detail about your activities and events.You will have the data needed to respond to these questions if you track the information described here.

 

Thank you in advance for your documentation efforts.Our intent is to keep your tracking burden reasonable while also capturing the data needed to demonstrate the scope and outcomes of your work.If you have any questions about this document, please direct them to Julie Benyo at julie_benyo@wgbh.org.
