  • Strengthen communication efforts to raise awareness about an organization's mission and attract attention and resources to the organization
  • Expand and stabilize resources to develop financial stability by increasing the CBO's ability to develop necessary resources and plan for longer-term sustainability, including the ability to apply for foundation, corporate support, and/or government funding streams
  • Strengthen and evaluate programming to enhance access and delivery of OUD services to more individuals and families in their communities
  • Foster collaborations with a broad range of allies to strengthen community engagement that results in stronger and expanded services
