Tina R. Trent, M.A., David M. Chavis, Ph.D. Eleven comprehensive community initiatives were analyzed to better understand how these complex efforts can reach the scope, scale, and sustainability needed to achieve lasting community change. Six factors were found to cut across scope, scale, and sustainability. These factors included having a single broker or entity that holds the vision of the change effort; clearly defined roles; alignment among interventions, resources, and geography; meaningful community engagement; competent leadership and staff; and strategic, cross level relationships. Additional factors were found to relate to success in achieving scope, scale, or sustainability individually. From The Foundation Review (Vol. 1, Issue 1).
