# Program Outcomes Types & Adding Outcomes

### Adding an Outcome Type

Search and select "Program Placement Outcome Type."

Choose to either edit a current outcome type or create a new one by selecting the green bar below.

Give the outcome type a name, an optional description, a style for display, and choose the programs the outcome should be associated with.

Click Save.

### Adding an Outcome Type to a Program

If an outcome type has already been added to YouthCenter, an administrator may also add it to a specific Program by:

Opening the Administration tab and choosing Picklist Admin.

![Administration and Picklist menu](https://docs.youthcenter.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/image-2.png)

Search and select "Program." Next to the program you would like to add the outcome to, choose "Edit this row."

![Edit this row](https://docs.youthcenter.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/image-4.png)

Under "Outcome Types," add the newly created outcome.
