Participants will leave with ideas and resources for individualizing, replicating, and extending the ideas presented. Hand-outs will be given that outline steps to be taken, committees needed, marketing strategies, and funding opportunities that will allow participants to replicate the idea in their own communities while taking the individual needs and resources of their community into consideration. A question and answer session will follow.
