When applied together, the BUILD principles – Bold, Upstream, Integrated, Local, and Data-Driven – represent a powerful model that has the potential to transform community health and advance health equity. In the recently released BUILD Community Health Workbook, you’ll find a set of worksheets that can help your team to explore these principles together – the BUILD Collaborative Activities.

By offering a process to reflect on your work and document your responses as a collaborative, these activities offer an opportunity for your partners to develop a bold vision, align your understanding of key concepts, and create next steps for moving forward, together. They can also be a valuable foundation to return to as your work, your community, and your partnership evolves.

Below, we share a copy of the activities themselves for you to print and work on with your collaborative team members. BUILD awardees narrate how to use the activities in a set of accompanying videos.
