A multi-program cost analysis and planning model for social service programs

Abstract

Social service administrators and planners in both the private and public sector are increasingly being held fiscally and programmatically accountable by both sponsors and consumers of services. An examination of the trend toward program budgeting and its various techniques is presented. It can assist the administrator-planner in developing a more accountable program. A specific approach to cost analysis and planning for multiprogram social service agencies is explored through its application in an agency setting. The application of the model to other social service programs is discussed. (Journal abstract, edited.)
