Working Groups: Recruitment, ongoing contact to ensure completion of goals, resources required, staff support, and ongoing evaluation of needs.
Partnerships: Create a shared framework amongst partner organizations, finalize the vision, mission and goals. Identify key services to be phased in, and determine resources partners can allocate and share (e.g. staffing, equipment). Document the nature and scope of the service each organization will offer through the Community Hub and its level of fiscal responsibility via Memoranda of Understanding.
Case Management: Create Framework, provide staff orientation, plan project launch, create intake process and schedule of services to be delivered, space allocation, and information access.
