Stories “We decided to pair movies with group conversations and discuss the parallel of television/movies and real life.” “We were elated that in our first culminating event, her aunt came to watch her present and she was able to stand in front of the classroom and present her artwork.” “A leader from a local Girl Scout organization came in weekly to provide the youth with lessons on Leadership, Self Esteem, Volunteer work and a variety of other character development assets.”

Thinking About Sustainability
When you think about sustainability in your work, what are you thinking of?
13
Defining Sustainability
The ability to continue services after a funding period is over and to ensure that the organization becomes a permanent part of community resources (Center of Substance Abuse Treatment, 2008) Answering the question: “How do I build a stable base of support to sustain my work over time?” Institutionalization: The active process of developing practices, relationships, and procedures that become a lasting part of the community (Community Toolbox)
14
What do you want to sustain?
15
Key Questions What is the nature of our initiative (or organization)?
What are the goals of our initiative? What has our initiative done? What publicity has our initiative received? How is our initiative structured and governed? Does our initiative have sufficient staffing? Is our budget sufficient to cover expected costs now and in the future? What are some obstacles we may encounter? And how do we get around them?
