This manual, created for the Casey Foundation's Making Connections initiative, defines theory of change using Casey's impact, influence and leverage platform, and shows community advocates how to create their own TOC by showing the relationships between outcomes, assumptions, strategies and results.

What is Success? This publication, which draws on VeneKlasen and Miller’s book A New Weave of Power, People & Politics, argues that a successful advocacy effort needs to produce change in five dimensions: Government, Private sector, Civil society, Political space and culture, and the Individual. The publication also offers an Advocacy Action and Impact Chart that can be used as a checklist planning and evaluation. The framework is shaped by the experience of long-time social justice advocates around the world who found that advocacy success needs to produce multidimensional change.
