Work Together

We want to include partners from all sectors to improve health, so how do we invite people to be part of our team when we don’t know them? How do we build trust? How do we move to action?

Communicate

How do we keep everyone who is working on our strategies up-to-date and in the loop? How do we share our story so that others are inspired to improve health?

Choose Effective Policies & Programs

How do we know if a strategy will work? Should we always pick the strategy that has the most evidence? What about innovative approaches?

Act on What's Important

What does it take to move from planning to action? How do we create political will for our leaders to adopt new approaches? How do we support our strategies?

Focus on What's Important

What if everything feels like a priority? How many priorities are reasonable? What if members of our team disagree about priorities? How can we narrow our focus?

Assess Needs & Resources

What data will help us understand our community? Where do we find it? How do we know we have enough data? What does all this data mean?

Evaluate Actions

Where do we start with evaluation? How do we know if we are making a difference? How can we demonstrate progress in the short-term?
