“…40 Logic models facilitate the identification of shared and distinguishing characteristics and activities across programs, and suggest directions for more rigorous future testing of perceived relationships among program characteristics, activities, and outcomes. 38,39 Methods The current site visit study is one in a series of consumer-informed studies focused on documenting the experiences and needs of parents with serious mental illness and their children, and dedicated to building the evidence base to improve outcomes for these families. [40][41][42][43] Consumer, provider, and policymaker input has been built in to the program of research and the dissemination of findings over the years through advisory group participation; stakeholder input into research designs, procedures, methods, and measures; stakeholder participation in the dissemination of findings in presentations and publications; and the employment of consumers in essential research roles.…”

The rationale for the development of effective programs for parents with serious mental illness and their children is compelling. Using qualitative methods and a grounded theory approach with data obtained in site visits, seven existing programs for parents with mental illness and their children in the United States are described and compared across core components: target population, theory and assumptions, funding, community and agency contexts, essential services and intervention strategies, moderators, and outcomes. The diversity across programs is strongly complemented by shared characteristics, the identification of which provides the foundation for future testing and the development of an evidence base. Challenges in program implementation and sustainability are identified. Qualitative methods are useful, particularly when studying existing programs, in taking steps toward building the evidence base for effective programs for parents with serious mental illness and their children.

Little is known about the effectiveness of interventions for families living with parental mental illness. Existing interventions offer information about successfully implemented treatments, which may demonstrate effectiveness in research. In the current study, directors of programs for parents with mental illness and their families were interviewed. Qualitative analyses revealed noteworthy similarities with respect to target population; funding; community context; agency context; mission, theoretical orientation, and assumptions; locus of care and essential services; desired outcomes; and moderators. Program similarities were identified to provide parameters for research, and to contribute to the development of testable hypotheses. Family-centered, strengths-based approaches were identified across program directors as critical to intervention success.

“…Some authors suggested that in describing the problems, stating and reflecting on the goal of the programme as well as the information obtained in step 1 is foundational (Kaplan & Garrett, 2005;Millar, Simeone, & Carnevale 2001). Others argue that for effective description of the problems, the question of "how" should be asked towards the goal of the programme being evaluated (McCawley, 2002;McLaughlin & Jordan, 2015), and this question would form the overall evaluation question guiding the logic model.…”

Logic models and case study approach to programme evaluation have proven effective in evaluating educational programmes. However, there is no article that has described a step by step process of how a logic model can inform the choice of a case study methodology. In this article, we used the clinical components of a bridging programme in Canada to illustrate the step by step process of logic model to case study methodology. We provided a background to the bridging programme, steps for designing programme evaluation logic model, and subsequently described how programme evaluation would inform the choice of case study methodology. We further described case study methodology ranging from stating the evaluation questions, epistemological position, study proposition and unit of selection, sampling techniques/types, data collection and analysis. In closing, we provided highlights of how to link the evaluation process back to the logic model developed.
