The Outcomes Measurement Framework enables a shared understanding of outcomes across government agencies and the community services sector and will better harness data to demonstrate the effectiveness of community services at achieving positive outcomes for the people of Western Australia.
The Framework is an initiative of the Supporting Communities Forum. It was initially developed through Department of Finance funding to the Western Australian Council of Social Service, under the guidance and oversight of the Supporting Communities Forum.
Finance will undertake ongoing implementation of the Framework in consultation with government agencies and the community services sector, with oversight from the Supporting Communities Forum.
Government agencies are responsible for integrating the Framework into their community services commissioning and service delivery management. Finance has created a User Guide to help achieve this or you can contact Finance for more support.
