Being able to report results is vital for any nonprofit organization, NGO, or other mission-based organization (schools, government agencies, etc.). You must be able to show -- to the general public, to program partners, to supporters, to potential supporters, to the media -- that your organization or program is making a real difference.
Need resources on performance measurement and reporting results? This excellent online database of evaluation resources is written in plain English and includes slide presentations with audio, written text and worksheets. It was developed for AmeriCorps members (part of the USA's national service program). If you need to report about your program's progress -- and it doesn't have to have anything to with AmeriCorps -- you will find these resources helpful.
Also see Questions to Ask for a Major Report from the Developing World, which, while created for use in-the-field in the developing world, might also be helpful for any nonprofit or mission-based organization needing to report on program results.
