When evaluating the effectiveness of a support service for an urban hostel catering to single individuals, here are five points to consider:
1. Occupancy rates and utilization: Assess the occupancy rates and utilization of the hostel. This involves tracking the number of individuals who have utilized the service, the duration of their stay, and the frequency of occupancy. Higher occupancy rates and consistent utilization indicate that the hostel effectively meets the needs of its target population.
2. Client satisfaction and feedback: Measure the satisfaction levels of individuals who have stayed at the hostel. Conduct surveys, interviews, or feedback sessions to gather information about their experiences, the quality of accommodation provided, the support services offered, and overall satisfaction with their stay. Feedback can provide insights into the effectiveness of the support service from the perspective of the residents.
3. Support and resources: Evaluate the range and effectiveness of the support services and resources provided by the hostel. This can include assessing the availability of counseling services, employment assistance, educational programs, or life skills training. Evaluate the utilization rates of these services and gather feedback from residents to determine if the support services effectively address their needs and support their personal development.
4. Housing stability and transition: Assess the impact of the hostel on housing stability and successful transition to permanent housing. Measure the number of individuals who have transitioned to stable, independent housing after their stay at the hostel. Evaluate the effectiveness of the hostel's support in helping individuals secure stable housing and prevent homelessness in the long term.
5. Community integration and well-being: Evaluate the extent to which the hostel facilitates community integration and promotes the well-being of its residents. Assess indicators such as social connections, participation in community activities, access to healthcare services, and overall improvement in residents' quality of life. Community integration and improved well-being indicate the effectiveness of the support service in fostering a positive living environment.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
