PROBLEM DEFINITION

FUNDING SOURCES

PLAYERSAPPROACHES

FUNDED MANDATES

Elements of Collaboration Multiplier can be

modified depending on coalition needs… “While I have always known that it is

important to address violence

while promoting healthy eating active living,

the issue has always seemed like

something ‘outside of my scope,’ and

I have not had the tools or understanding

to deal with this issue.”

- Community grantee representing HEAL

“This initiative has helped me connect

with violence prevention organizations, and

I have been able to learn from these

partners and become familiar with their

tools and policy and environmental

change initiatives.”

- Community grantee representing HEAL
