Action Item 81 (pg. 220)

Coordination of Programs.
Facilitate coordination of available and planned programs, including agency programs, programs administered by not-for-profit organizations, and less traditional programs such as informal recruitment taking place at local shooting ranges. Each agency should have at least one coordinator to manage R&R efforts and programs - to ensure that programs do not overlap and that resources are efficiently used.

Best Practices:

Chapter 13 Integrated Department-wide programs

  • Develop organization-wide commitment
  • Develop comprehensive, integrated plan that identifies goals, objectives, strategies, and resources needed
  • Assign a staff person to coordinate all activities
  • Share program results with external publics.
