Develop comprehensive communication plan
Create a strategy that includes email, online, and social media to share progress.
Ensure effective and frequent communication with stakeholders, implementation partners, and funders. Consider the following questions:
- How can we increase transparency in our work?
- How have diverse perspectives shaped the work to date?
- How can we improve our communications and engagement with the broader neighborhood community?
Prepare progress report
- Drawing on the work from the previous three actions, create a comprehensive report that highlight progress on key strategies – with a focus on what is on track and what is behind schedule and why. Include tracking on all indicators and overall impact towards Just Community Commitments.
- Share lessons learned or stories from the work to date.
Engagement
- Seek input from the Community Network on the communications plan. Ensure the plan includes engagement pathways for residents that are traditionally underrepresented and lacking power.
- Develop a robust database of community stakeholders, implementation partners, funders, and other stakeholders critical to implementation and input.
- Be mindful that some stakeholders may not use smart phones or electronic media. Identify other forms of sharing information including in person gatherings and local newspapers. -
- Consider partnering with a local technology company, school, or university to help build out an online target tracker and information exchange.
