Our Community:
Our Method-Collective Impact:
Collective Impact (n) - A community coming together around a backbone organization as a team of equals to collaborate on solutions that no one organization can implement on its own.
Collective Impact is a structured way to unite a community of diverse people and achieve truly meaningful social change. By bringing everyone to the table and building relationships between them, Collective Impact accomplishes a community's goals through key elements of success:
- A Common Agenda: collectively putting forth a unified vision of a better community.
- Shared Measurements: providing meaningful feedback to everyone involved.
- Mutually Reinforcing Activities: avoiding duplication in favor of cooperation.
- Continuous Communication: reinforcing trust and relationships between partners.
- A Strong Backbone: orchestrating the hard work done through a unified initiative
Our Model and Framework:
Healthy Williamson County uses the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) 2.0 Framework to guide our CHA and CHIP efforts. Below is a depiction of a road map following the three MAPP phases with the goal of achieving health equity for all.
