Presentations are a big part of how many victim service organizations reach their communities—whether through prevention education, awareness sessions, or outreach events. In Strive DB, you can log each presentation in a way that makes grant reporting and program evaluation seamless.
This post walks you through how to enter a presentation from start to finish, including audience demographics and funding data.
🧠Access the Presentations Section
To begin, head to the Advocacy tab in the left-hand menu, then click Presentations. This opens a table showing all previously logged presentations.
âž• Start a New Presentation Log
Click the “New Presentation” button to begin a new entry. This will open the first part of the form.
đź“ť Fill Out Basic Presentation Info
In the first step, you’ll log the basic event details:
- Date of the presentation
- Type – such as primary prevention, outreach, training
- Topic – e.g., healthy relationships, consent, boundaries
- Location – where the presentation took place (e.g., workplace, school)
- Grant – indicate which grant funded the event
- Units of service – number of presentations or hours
- Pre/post test – whether a test was given before, after, or both
🔄 Proceed to the Presentation Page
Click Next to land on the specific Presentation Detail Page. This is where you’ll enter attendance and presenter info.
đź‘Ą Add Audience and Presenter Info
On this screen, fill out:
- Number of attendees
- Total presentations given (for that event)
- Providers – who gave the presentation (mark primary vs. support)
- Remarks – any additional notes or context
🧠Recording presenters helps connect the work to staff service logs, and ensures credit for participation is tracked consistently.
đź“Š Add Audience Demographics
This is one of the most important steps for grant reporting.
- For each unique combo of gender, race, ethnicity, and age range, add a new row
- Enter the number of participants that match that combo
âś… Entering full demographics here supports accurate grant submissions without needing extra spreadsheets later.
đź’ľ Save and Review Summary
Once everything is entered, hit Save. Strive DB will show a summary view with:
- Total attendees
- Number of presentations
- Demographic breakdown table
🧠Final Thoughts
The Presentations tool in Strive DB makes it simple to document outreach, track provider involvement, and stay grant-compliant. Whether it’s a one-time event or part of a long-term series, each presentation you log helps paint a clearer picture of your organization’s impact.
