This book results from ten years of thinking, writing,
and practicing an "outcomes" approach in the human
services field. The term "outcomes" reflects a set of positive
expectations, progress toward which is measured
through "indicators" of well-being. As practitioners of
the "outcomes-and-indicators" approach, we know its
effectiveness.
The lightbulb came on in our collective minds in 1992.
Con, then Secretary of the Vermont Agency of Human
Services (AHS), met Frank Farrow, Director of the
Center for the Study of Social Policy in Washington,
D.C. Con's 10 years working in the private sector had
introduced him to the power of common purpose and
the value of measuring results. Along with then
Vermont Commissioner of Education, Richard Mills,
an education in outcomes thinking began among very
interested pupils.
