1. Agency/Organization- Where the program is housed and operated

underit will be that agency or organization. Sometime the

program is developed first, and then an agency or organization is

created to house that program. Normally, when that happens, the

mission, goals, and objectives of the organization is very similar to

the programs mission, goals, and objectives. However, at times,

we have an agency or organization that has been operating for a

while with many programs and there is a decision to create and

implement a new program to meet changing needs of clients, new

social issues/problems, etc. This section and number 2 below,

should focus on the agency or organizations mission, goals, and

objectives, not the programs.
