NASCSP 2013 Option Four: Direct Services and ROMA Cycle Categories Based on feedback from this year’s ROMA Annual In-Service Training attendees, the Nationally Certified ROMA Trainers, we have developed an additional option for presenting the CSBG expenditures within the ROMA cycle. This approach would incorporate the current service categories into the implementation stage of the cycle. It would require extensive training and an extended timeline for implementation. In addition, we have received feedback from agencies describing the complexity of dividing expenditures in this way and the difference from their current reporting system. The benefit of to this option is the ability to further emphasize the evaluation and assessment portions of the ROMA cycle and more accurately assess how funds are being used in those activities.

NASCSP 2013 CONCLUSION The Community Action Network's mission as outlined in the CSBG Statute is to reduce poverty, revitalize low-income communities, and empower low-income families and individuals in rural and urban areas to become fully self-sufficient. Performance management has been a part of the history of Community Action throughout the last 50 years and has enabled the Network to better serve people with low incomes and their communities. The ROMA Next Generation Center of Excellence (COE) aims to strengthen the network's ability to address the needs of vulnerable populations through the development of a theory of change and improving the data reporting system. The draft Theory of Change for Community Action outlines the unique operating structure of the Community Action Network and highlights two long term goals: family self-sufficiency and revitalized communities. The COE has provided eight options for improving the National Performance Indicators within our CSBG IS Survey to measure progress towards each of the long-term goals. The COE has also outlined several options for more detailed reporting on the use of CSBG funds specifically. Further discussion is needed within the Network and with outside experts to decide the best path forward; a path that both strengthens the Network's management and accountability system as well as the demands of a more rigorous evidencebased environment. This <strong>paper</strong> is just the beginning of this discussion and NASCSP looks forward to continuing to engage all levels of the Network to participate in this process. Conversations will continue through webinars, surveys, and many other venues to allow opportunities for input from all levels of the Network.
