Overall Community Engagement
This expectation instructs TPP23 Tier 1 projects to:
- Develop and implement a strategy for engaging key stakeholders, community organizations, and leaders throughout the project.
- Develop and/or leverage partnerships and/or coalitions to help mobilize resources, influence systems, and serve as catalysts for changing policies, programs, and practices within the community.
- Key stakeholders, community organizations, and leaders should be reflective of the community(ies) and population(s) served and include youth, parents/caregivers, youth-serving professionals, and other youth- identified trusted adults.
