The Leaving a Legacy Planning Worksheet describes a six-step process to create an action plan to sustain your grant project's work. These steps are:
- Identifying the programs and activities that have been most effective in producing positive outcomes supporting your project's goals
- Determining which of these effective programs and activities are not supported beyond the end of the Federal grant and will stop (and stop producing positive outcomes) unless action is taken to sustain them
- Prioritizing those effective programs and activities that are not yet sustained
- Understanding the functions of these programs and activities
- Identifying strategies that can sustain these functions (and thus the positive outcomes of your effective programs and activities)
- Identifying action steps for implementing these sustainability strategies
