This tool can help you identify issues or areas of needed growth, how these capacity needs will be addressed, the person(s) responsible, the timeline for addressing each capacity need, and the measure of success (how you will know the need has been met).
Complete a Capacity-Building Worksheet for each capacity need you identify as you carry out each step in the SPF model. Remember to keep in mind any capacity needs your group may have related to cultural competence and sustainability.
Below is an example of a completed worksheet addressing a capacity need related to Step 1 of the SPF.
Sample Capacity-Building Worksheet for Step 1 of the SPF

Issue/Area of Growth: |
We need to have a representative from Prevention, Inc., participate in the needs assessment process, since this group works with one of the populations at risk for opioid misuse in our community and could give us important input. |
|
How the Capacity Need Will Be Addressed: |
We will meet with Betty Leader, the director of Prevention, Inc., to discuss the project and identify how Prevention, Inc., might participate. Betty Leader and/or other staff will also be invited to future project meetings. |
|
|
Person(s) Responsible: |
Jane Smith will contact Betty to set up a meeting. Other members who will attend include J. Jones and A. Black from our group, both of whom already work with Jane on other projects. A technical assistance provider from MassTAPP will also attend. |
|
|
Timeline: |
Jane will contact Betty by July 9 and schedule the meeting for the week of July 14. |
|
|
Measure of Success: |
Betty or another representative from Prevention, Inc., becomes an active participant in our needs assessment process. |
