To start this discussion, please define and give examples of efficiency and effectiveness in relation to a particular program of service with which you have an interest. Do some basic research and tell us in your own wrds why this issue is important to you?

Efficiency-the volume of service programs provides compared to their cost. Eventually are the amount of services provided worth the cost. Governments and organizations look at this to push for balanced budgets, control spending, and eliminate wasted funds. Effectiveness- Is the impact that services have on the constituents in which they are created to serve. A big example of ineffective programs or services is a huge debate of powers up here in Alaska. There is a major homeless problem here. When covid hit it went through our homeless community hard so they decided to turn our hockey stadium into a mass shelter and quarantine shelter with testing and medical support. Well the idea seemed like a feasible an efficient and effective way effective way to deal with the problem it actually led to more problems. Yes the homeless did come but they wouldn't stay so it avoided the whole purpose of the quarantine shelter and they ended up spending millions of dollars to rent this plus more money to have people staff the program that that pretty much did not eliminate any of the things they were trying to help out with people we're coming and going they destroyed the it the stadium causing millions more dollars in damages and then the ones that wanted to be there Didn't wanna be there anymore because it wasn't safe and it wasn't disarray. So their answer for that was to buy an old hotel and turn that into a shelter while again the homeless people didn't want to stay there and is there and so it costs millions more dollars for a shelter that sits mostly empty. So while yes they tried to make an efficient and effective program. it proved to be ineffective.
