Those strategies are:
• Leadership for change,
• Partnership and collaboration,
• Implementation,
• Communications and marketing,
• Evaluation, and
• Financing.
Or y ou can access the Legacy Wheel at:

Go to the FLASH version and click within the wheel to find information about each of the six strategies and links to related resources.
Click on the outer wheel to find answers to frequently asked questions about sustainability, definitions, tools and models to help create a sustainability plan, and guidance on self-assessment.
In developing the Legacy Wheel, the center culled the experience and expertise of grantees nationwide who have been successful in their sustainability efforts.
