According to NAACHOs MAPP User Handbook:

Completing Phase One answers the following questions:

Who should be included in the MAPP process?
Is the community ready to conduct a MAPP process?
What are the resource needs for implementing a MAPP process?
How will the community proceed through the MAPP process? (NACCHO, 2013)

There are six steps to completing Phase One:

Step One: Determine the Need
Step Two: Identify and Organize Participants
Step Three: Design the Planning Process
Step Four: Identify Resource Needs
Step Five: Complete Readiness Assessment
Step Six: Determine How the Process Will Be Managed (NACCHO, 2013)

Complete the following steps of Phase One: Organize for Success/Partnership Development.

Step One: Determine the Need:
Answer the following four questions as found on page 11 of the MAPP User Handbook:
      i.      Why should we complete the MAPP process?
      ii.      What critical issues do we hope to address?
      iii.      Who is driving the process?
      iv.      What do we want to get out of the MAPP process?

Step Two: Identify and Organize Participants

Use the Community Description attached below and review the Local Public Health System Jelly Bean Diagram to identify the key organizations that should be invited to be part of the MAPP Steering Committee.  The list of potential candidates should be listed in an appendix using the MAPP Steering Committee template. A narrative description of the MAPP Steering Committee should be included within the five page paper.  Refer to Phase One in the MAPP User Handbook for assistance in identifying partner organizations.
