This paper presents and discusses four current budget strategies used in the field of human services to further seven key functions of sound management. Line item, functional, and program budgeting formats are first discussed to show how each approach, both individually and together with the others as a unified system, collectively supports sound management decision making. In the last section of the paper, zero-base budgeting is presented and discussed as an important adjunctive management tool. The central thrust of the presentation is that human services managers need to become flexibly conversant with these four basic management budgeting tools so that first, as administrators they can increase the efficiency and effectiveness of operations through tighter internal management controls, and second, as stewards of public trust they can assure a greater degree of public support, confidence, and accountability for resources allocated and objectives achieved.
