• Who can help address the priority goals, and how will they be meaningfully engaged in the work?

• How will implementation be adapted to ensure it is effective and culturally appropriate, particularly for groups that have experienced inequities?
• Do we have the conditions needed for success, such as time, funding, leadership, people, and technical support?
• Are actions aligned with the strategic plan and guided by the priorities identified during planning?

• Work collaboratively with partners to implement changes in programs, policies, or practices that advance community engagement and priority goals.
