This graphic representation shows the logical relationships between:

• The resources that go into a program
• The activities the program undertakes.
• The changes or benefits that result.

The logic model describes the sequence of events thought to bring about benefits or change over time. It portrays the chain of reasoning that links investments to results.

A logic model is a systems model that shows the connection of interdependent parts that together make up the whole. As with systems thinking, we know that a total program is greater than the sum of the individual parts.
