7. Sustainability

§         Discuss strategy for larger process, discussion and decision-making

§         Discussion needs to occur regarding what needs to happen and how much time is needed for strategy implementation-

§         Kate asked “what needs to start happening now to ensure that something is left after June 30^th”. 

§         What will structure be?

§         What programs will still exist?

§         Whose hands will they still be left in?

§         What would our role be as a community coalition?

§         Kate spoke that their needs to be a discussion of what will this group become and what it is capable of doing?  What shape will it take?

§         Anjali spoke of the importance of a DPH sustainability strategy.

§         Gloria spoke of looking at other collaborations that need to be developed.

§         Karen and Neil spoke that the ATF is product and outcome based.

§         Kate posed question of how projects will continue to occur without CAFA and city $

§         Neil used the example of SFUSD and the need for parent involvement and buy-in.  ATF could serve role of technical assistance after June 08

§         Potential legislation through Sup. Maxwell is another opportunity for sustainability.  Important to look at what city agencies can do and be funded for past June 08. 

§         Kate asked if the entire ATF will work on or only the planning committee with report backs.  Karen suggested sustainability workgroup.  Gloria wants a whole group discussion for buy-in.  Karen further suggested an interview method- each member (voting and non-voting) interviewed off-line to ask their opinion.  ATF staff can complete interviews and then compile priorities.

§         Karen spoke of interview process of stakeholders at the beginning of the ATF process.  She would like interviews of persons affected by the ATF work and see what they think the sustainability goals of the ATF (potentially 2008).  Neil thinks that the current work is to be finding our targets to carry on the work- rather than interviewing.  Karen spoke of combining the two- finding people to be involved, what work do they think is important.  Kate says questions should involve letting them know what we have done, and whether or not they see the need for it to continue.  Open ended questions will lead to “dreams and visions”, rather than focusing on the work that has been done. 

Each committee needs to ID who community partners are. 

Need to be able to evaluate what the future of each project will be based on feedback and criteria we set. 

At next ATF meeting will look at work done, review member interview process and questions, and map out community partners.  Next step would be to conduct interviews and to specify what role each community partner will play.

Kate said a calendar is needed to look at the timeline for the whole process.

Anjali-Put community partner mapping activity on agenda of each committee.  

Kate is willing to draft interviews with Anjali and Stephanie.  Idea will be introduced at next ATF meeting. 

Anjali will prepare the milestones grid for the next meeting, so ATF members will have a guideline for interview process.

Anjali will get CAFA Eval report of Semi-annual reports for planning committee to review

8. ACTION ITEM: ATF support for Coleman Advocates’ New Agenda for the Next Generation Rally – May 12^th

Discussion and decision about whether SFATF will formally endorse the rally around the following goal of the initiative: “…a city where housing is affordable, where the diversity of our heritage is celebrated, where there are good schools in every neighborhood, where all children are safe, and where the next generation reaps the rewards of their families' hard work.”  Basis of potential support is overlap of priority issues and expansion of ATF partnership.

The members present planning committee of the ATF will endorse the Coleman agenda with the addition of “healthy affordable housing and asthma prevention”

Anjali will complete the endorsement form. Anjali will place announcement about action item at April meeting.
