MEASURING OUR PROGRESS Health, Mental Health, Education and Human Service professionals in Calhoun County are committed to having a positive impact in the lives of the citizens they serve. In order to assess the level of impact programs and services have, professionals in Calhoun County examine a variety of indicators. An indicator is an expression of information refl ecting the status of a larger system Indicators are important for several reasons. First, they can help describe community conditions relative to children and families. Second, they can be used to educate and inform local and state planning efforts and public policy decisions. Third, indicators can be used to measure progress toward identifi ed community goals. Additionally, indicators help to monitor the impact of investments and policy decisions. Using indicators that describe and measure progress, service providers can improve service delivery for all. Indicator data tracked over time may be graphed as a trend. As citizens have the ability to see data trends, they have the opportunity to mobilize and advocate for change. What makes a good Indicator? Making a Difference Indicators need to matter. They need to be relevant and important to the community. Indicators need to be measurable, refl ecting data that is measurable and accurate. Indicators need to mean something. They should create a convincing picture easily explained to the public and policymakers.
