To establish successful partnerships in the public health sphere, organizations, programs, and professionals must consider the following factors:
- The common agenda (common understanding of the problem and a joint approach to solving it).
- Shared measurement (collecting data and measuring results consistently).
- Mutually reinforcing activities (coordinating participant activities that drive behavior change).
- Continuous communication (open and routine communication to build trust and motivation).
- Backbone support (proper staff and skill sets to support the coordination of services and programs).
Choose one of these five factors and propose ways to improve that factor in your current practicum experience, explaining how appropriate actions can be taken. You may also prioritize your suggested actions or explain possible interactions. Identify the assumptions that underlie your suggestions and identify your own knowledge gaps, incomplete information, unanswered questions, or uncertainties. Support your suggestions with evidence from your textbook, readings, or other professional literature, and be prepared to defend your choices to the extent that your knowledge allows.\
