| Form And Line Reference | PART I, LINE 2: | FormAndLineReferenceDesc |
| Explanation | THE MASSACHUSETTS LEGAL ASSISTANCE CORPORATION (MLAC) MONITORS SEVERAL OF ITS GRANTEES IN VARIOUS GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS OF MASSACHUSETTS EACH YEAR. MLAC GOALS FOR THE MONITORING PROCESS ARE: 1)TO SHOW THAT THE PROGRAMS HAVE MET A PARTICULAR LEVEL OF QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF SERVICES. 2)TO IMPROVE THE SUBSTANTIVE WORK OF PROGRAMS. 3)TO IDENTIFY BEST PRACTICES. MLAC USES A PEER REVIEW MODEL TO ASSESS GRANTEES PERFORMANCE AND TAKES A FAIRLY COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH AS NOT ALL PROGRAMS ARE SITE VISITED EACH YEAR. DURING THE INTERIM, MLAC MAINTAINS FOCUS ON THEIR ISSUES BY MONITORING THEIR ANNUAL FUNDING APPLICATIONS, ANNUAL AND MID-YEAR REPORTS AND THEIR FINANCIAL AUDITS. THE PEER REVIEW MODEL CONSISTS OF MLAC CONTRACTING WITH ATTORNEYS AND CONTENT EXPERTS OUTSIDE OF MASSACHUSETTS TO SERVE AS INDEPENDENT CONSULTANTS. THESE ARE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE WORK EXPERIENCE WITH LEGAL AID PROGRAMS AND BACKGROUNDS IN PROGRAM EVALUATION. THEY ASSESS PROGRAM OPERATIONS AGAINST A FRAMEWORK OF PERFORMANCE STANDARDS DEVELOPED BY MLAC (BASED ON THE AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION (ABA) STANDARDS) THAT FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING AREAS: 1.STRATEGIC AND COLLABORATIVE PLANNING PARTNERSHIP 2.DEVELOPMENT AND UTILIZATION OF RESOURCES 3.CLIENT ACCESS 4.QUALITY ASSURANCE 5.EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION 6.GOVERNANCE PRIOR TO THE ON-SITE VISIT, THE PEER REVIEWERS RECEIVE A FAIRLY EXTENSIVE SET OF INFORMATION ON THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING ANNUAL REPORTS AND INFORMATION THAT IS INDICATIVE OF INTERNAL OPERATIONS SUCH AS STAFF TURNOVER, ATTORNEYS YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, BOARD AND STAFF DIVERSITY. THE PEER REVIEWER REVIEWS THIS INFORMATION, PREPARES AND ADMINISTERS INTERVIEW PROTOCOLS, CONDUCTS A SITE VISIT TO THE PROGRAMS OFFICE(S), AND COMPILES A REPORT IDENTIFYING THE PROGRAMS STRENGTHS, CHALLENGES AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE. THE PEER REVIEWERS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO INTERVIEW BOARD MEMBERS, IN PARTICULAR THE PRESIDENT AND TREASURER, TO DETERMINE HOW WELL THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS PERFORMING ITS OVERSIGHT AND FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY. MLAC FISCAL MANAGER CONDUCTS A REVIEW OF THE PROGRAM FINANCIAL OPERATIONS MONITORING A VARIETY OF AREAS SUCH AS WHETHER THE PROGRAM HAS SUBMITTED KEY DOCUMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE, IRS 990 AND THE MASSACHUSETTS PUBLIC CHARITIES FORM. THE FISCAL MANAGER ALSO REVIEWS VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE PROGRAM FINANCIAL OPERATIONS INCLUDING THE PROGRAM AUDITED FINANCIALS, INSURANCE COVERAGE, PERSONNEL AND OTHER MANAGEMENT POLICIES, ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS. THERE IS CONSIDERABLE POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE THROUGH THE PEER REVIEW PROCESS. THE SUCCESS OF MLAC PEER REVIEW MODEL RESTS ON THE FACT THAT THE PEER REVIEWERS ARE VERY ADEPT IN IDENTIFYING PROGRAMS' CHALLENGES AND MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS THAT IMPROVE THE SUBSTANTIVE WORK AND MANAGERIAL PRACTICES OF PROGRAMS. THE INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM DIRECTORS REPORT ON WHETHER THEIR PROGRAMS HAVE IMPROVED BECAUSE OF PEER REVIEW WHILE MLAC HAS ALSO OBSERVED ORGANIZATIONAL SHIFTS SUCH AS INCREASED FUNDRAISING AND STAFF DIVERSITY. | ExplanationTxt |
