Workplans
A workplan can be developed for each strategic goal. The workplans could list activities for 2018 – 2021 with suggested time frames for completion. This is also supported by monitoring and evaluation framework and regular review.
Final Conclusions
The work of Leap over the past three years has provided essential support across a range of domains – especially within the family environment. This evaluation has highlighted the crucial role the organisation plays in assisting people and families when faced with barriers deeply engrained in Irish social systems. The positive findings and feedback highlight that the work of Leap continues to develop and grow to reach out to as many people and families as possible. The education strategy for Leap has the potential to further impact the way professionals are taught about the inclusion and integration of people with a disability. As one respondent noted in the
feedback Leap’s perspective ‘should be mandatory training for families and professionals’.
The work of Leap is also very much around being engaged with the person, the family and the wider community. A sense of belonging is central to Leap’s approach. This is reflected in the evaluation outcomes and the process
of change is pivotal for continuing this work into the future. The Leap way
of working is encapsulated with core principles which are embedded in each step of the Leap process.
