We need to give people the tools to manipulate their own lives and health.
Like a Personal Trainer. You have to do the work.
The community has to take ownership of the commitments and deliverables.
Getting buy-in is important. This is the role of community leaders. What works in their own community.
“We don’t want todo pilots. We want to roll out something that works”
Applicants have to have a multi-party involvement.
Share responsibilities instead of doing redundant work.

Constantly learning.
