4. Since the last CHILA, we are excited to share what we are most proud of….
Developing a stronger foundation
Building trust and strengthening partnerships
Listening to our stakeholders
Creating community conversations
Not giving up

5. A story about something we learned since CHILA1….
Institutional relationships are often superficial and based upon a false assumption. In Algoma we faced this dilemma which directly impacted our ability to fully implement Live Algoma. Chila 1 reminded us that we couldn’t let the ghosts of the past dictate our future success. Today we enjoy a level of collaboration that continues to grow each day. We’re not going to let past relationships define how we work together in the future.
WE are learning from the past to benefit current and future experiences.

6. What we learned about engaging community members with lived experience
We can’t assume we know what the community members want until we ask them.
We may never have thought about the information we receive. Their words are valuable.

7. What we learned about engaging the BROADER community in developing our aim
Insert picture or graph or data here if you would like
We are learning to shift from problem focused thinking to opportunities, possibilities and bright spots within our community.
As we build momentum with our social movement, the community will decide and drive our AIM.
We are not telling them what they need, we are asking them what they want.

8. Our aim for SCALE is…..
Short-Term AIM: Define and test areas of community desired aligned interventions in order to establish a measurement methodology by September 1, 2016.
Long-Term OVERALL AIM: Together, every person of the Algoma School District Community will choose one thing to improve their well-being by 2020, and Live Algoma will become a community model the world will follow.
Note: Well-being is defined by seven dimensions of health: emotional, spiritual, environmental, physical, intellectual, relational, and social.

14. Metrics we are considering to our track progress
Health Culture Survey?
Gallop data?

15. What we learned from “Switch”
Direct the Rider: “What looks like resistance is often a lack of clarity.” Change is easier when you know where you are going and why it is worth it.
We realized we needed a communication plan to address “What exactly is Live Algoma?”
We also realized that we needed to tell the community exactly what we wanted them to do, in easy, simple, motivating terms.

16. What we learned from “Switch”
Motivate the Elephant: “What looks like resistance is often a lack of clarity.” Break down the change until it no longer spooks the Elephant.
We realized we needed a lot of help with breaking down exactly what we wanted to do.
With the resources and education from Bellin Health and IHI we have been able to break down our overall AIM into four smaller driver diagrams.

17. What we learned from “Switch”
Shape the Path: “What looks like a people problem is often a situation problem.” When the situation changes, the behavior changes.
We are still trying to understand how to do this in our work. We know the importance, and are working to get there.

18. Top two things we learned from other communities since CHILA1
Healthy HotSpots – Proviso Partners for Health
Healthy HotSpot aims to multiply the number of places that make healthy living easier in or near your community. 
Personal Spotlights on community members – Healthy Waterville
Recognizing community members as valuable people. 
All in all we have learned that recognition matters.

19. Our biggest challenge(s) right now are…..
Time management between our full-time jobs and our coalition.
All of us have other jobs and families. How do we keep the momentum going without exhaustion?
Understanding how to measure well-being, especially at a community level.
We know we want to measure how actively engaged our community members are in improving one aspect of their well- being, but how?
Being able to manage all of the partnerships, ideas and projects.
As our community members are starting to hear about Live Algoma, more people want to help. How do we manage this?

20. We hope to learn this at CHILA2…
