Results-Based Public Policy focuses the energy of government on a singular purpose: to achieve sustainable and measurable improvements for children, youth and families. Results-based Public Policy is defined as using the desired outcome to drive the actions taken by government to address a particular issue. This decision-making process for developing public policy starts with a clearly articulated desired result or outcome to be achieved, assesses current circumstances, uses policy options that have demonstrated an ability to achieve this outcome and evaluates progress through data and performance measures. The New York Times reports that, in spite of stimulus funding, states are severely cutting programs for the most vulnerable. Agencies must compete for scarce dollars while being evaluated on the basis of their ability to position states to thrive in unforgiving competitive national and global economies. Focusing on the results they want to achieve, states can maximize federal funding, create returns on investment and generate savings. States need tools, like policyforresults.org, designed to help policymakers make effective budget decisions that will both protect the most vulnerable and achieve long-term results for their state.
