existing City programs to address the needs of Gilroy residents living with the
highest levels of food insecurity and social isolation.
1.02 PROGRAM Area. The PROGRAM Area is the incorporated area of the
City of Gilroy or in such other location as is approved by CITY in writing, for the purpose
of benefitting low and very low-income households within the CITY.

sheets, which shall include client’s name, residence, gender, family size, total household
income, race and ethnic data, disability data (as applicable), female head of household,

1.03 Outcome Measure Statement and Measurement Methodology.
Outcome Measure Statement.
An outcome measure statement is an overarching measurable goal CORPORATION
sets for a program. It describes the higher-level measurable impact or benefit
experienced by a client as a result of participating in CORPORATION’S activity(ies).
Each outcome statement must end with “as measured by ____.” CORPORATION will
fill in the blank, in order to explain how it intends to measure each outcome.
Examples:
Outcome Measure #1: 35% of clients will find affordable housing as measured by
corporation tracking the number of housing placements.
Outcome Measure #2: 50% of clients will advance to the next swim level as measured
by the American Red Cross guidelines.
Outcome Measure #3: 40% of clients will learn job readiness skills and knowledge that
will better prepare them for competing in the job market as measured by pre and post
surveys.
Measurement Methodology.
To assess the effectiveness of the program, a comprehensive outcome measurement
process must be implemented to assess whether output and outcome measures were
met.
Examples:
Measurement Methodology #1: Corporation shall maintain sign in sheets and intake
forms to collect output data on total clients served. The number of clients who were
placed in affordable housing units will be divided by the total number of clients served by
the program to get the actual percentage housed.
Measurement Methodology #2: Corporation shall maintain daily attendance rosters
and intake forms to collect output data on total clients served. Using the American Red
Cross guidelines, clients’ swim level will be assessed on the first day to determine
baseline. Clients will receive the appropriate swim lessons and, at the appropriate time,
will be reassessed to determine if the client will advance to the next swim level. The
total number of clients advancing to the next level will be divided by the t otal number of
clients served to get the percentage advancing to the next level.
Measurement Methodology #3: Corporation shall maintain intake forms to collect
output data on total clients served. A pre survey will be given to each client to assess
knowledge and skills at intake. A post survey will be administered to each client at the
appropriate time to assess if client feels better prepared to compete in the job market as
a result of the knowledge and skills gained. The total number of clients who reported
feeling better prepared to compete for a job will be divided by the total number of clients
served to get the actual percentage increase.

CORPORATION must list the outcome measure(s) proposed. For each outcome
measure listed, CORPORATION must provide the measurement methodology (data
collection and evaluation methods) to be implemented. The Quarter 2 and Quarter 4
outcome goals must be listed as a percentage (%) and each represents two quarters.
Outcome
Measure #1:
90% of Meals on Wheels clients will agree or strongly agree that
Meals on Wheels helps them stay independent in their homes,
as measured by the semi-annual client satisfaction survey.
Measurement
Methodology:
Surveys will be mailed or delivered to all clients twice per year to
provide input about the program. Measure #1 result is
calculated by the total number of participants who state that
Meals on Wheels is “somewhat” or “extremely” important in
helping them remain independent in their homes divided by the
total number of participants responding to the survey.

1.01 Payments to CORPORATION. CITY agrees to pay CORPORATION for the

Agreement, as the same may from time to time be amended. In making such
determination, CITY may rely upon the certification by CORPORATION that the items
appearing on said statement and supporting data are eligible items for payment under

paid to CORPORATION on any item which is not eligible for payment under the program

shall not be used to assist a religious organization in acquiring property.
These prohibitions apply whether the property is used for religious services
or instruction or is used in any other way for religious activities.

other religious influences in connection with the public services;

this prohibition is that minor repairs may be made where such
