Return to this Facilitation Guide to receive tips on getting organized and facilitating the process.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nABOUT THIS FACILITATION GUIDE  \nThe Facilitation Guide provides an overview of the three Sustainability Planning Tools – the SelfAssessment, Strategy Development, and Action Plan-available in the Summer Learning Toolkit. This guide provides helpful tips for summer program leads to prepare for and facilitate a collaborative planning process using those three tools. To prepare, this guide asks you to consider who should lead and participate in planning, the appropriate scope and timeline for planning, and strategies for when and how to engage a team. It also includes tips for facilitating and documenting these steps to build your Action Plan. The Tips for Getting Started section of this guide includes tips for selecting a planning lead. We expect that a primary audience for this guide is planning leads, once they’ve been identified.  \nABOUT THE SUSTAINABILITY PLANNING TOOLS  \nThe Sustainability Planning Tools are adaptable templates for sustainability planning team collaboration, facilitated by one or more leads. Each tool facilitates one step in a sequential sustainability planning process: Self-Assessment, Strategy Development, and Action Plan. However, you don’t have to complete all sections to benefit. After designing and completing a process that best meets your needs, you will have an actionable plan for generating lasting support for your program.  \nWHAT TYPES OF SUPPORT CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABILITY?  \nSupport can come in many forms and will hopefully evolve as relationships with stakeholders grow and mature. When engaging champions of key organizations and offices, consider the contributions they may be able and willing to offer. Here are examples of requests you may want to consider:  \n• Verbal support: Incorporate talking points about the importance of summer learning into speeches about priorities for youth and families.  \n• In-kind support: Contribute facilities, staff, and/or equipment.  \n• Operational support: Build buy in among departments and organizations so that planning for summer is a part of year-round operations and responsibilities.  \n• Policy support: Develop and promote policies that promote access, quality, and sustainability of programs.  \n• Funding support: Commit to funding the program by January.  \nTIP  \nWell-organized site visits for influential district and community leaders are a powerful and effective way to grow support.  \nThe Tools draw from a one-year planning process led by National Summer Learning Project (NSLP) partners, including five districts and their city agency and intermediary partn","cbCaisk6kUurQYBb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisk6kUurQYBb","pdf",2353782,31,"English","# How to Navigate and Use the Sustainability Planning Tools\n## Introduction\n## Why is Sustainability Planning Important?\n## Tips for Getting Started: Designing and Organizing your Approach\n## Tips for Effective Planning and Facilitation\n## Additional Sustainability Planning Resources","[{\"question\":\"What are the three Sustainability Planning Tools, and how are they used together?\",\"answer\":\"The three tools are Self-Assessment, Strategy Development, and Action Plan.
