April Newsletter - Strategic Prevention Framework, Step 2: Capacity

Maintaining Community Involvement by Building Capacity

A question often asked about coalition building is how to maintain the momentum of a coalition and keep members involved. Program coordinators will often take on the responsibility and the burden of the work of the coalition leadership alone. This approach can lead to a loss of interest from the coalition membership and an exhausted prevention team. If any of this sounds familiar, and you want to turn things around in your community, there is good news! This month we have provided many resources in the newsletter on capacity and leadership building.
