Vertical Integration across Jurisdiction

• Strengthen the integration of the change initiative: alignment and support within and across each WE component

• Expect LAMM participants to support supervisors in achieving their individual change initiative

• Expect LAMM participants to coach LAS supervisors to seek support for achieving individual change initiatives

Vertical Integration continued

Support LAS graduates in implementing Individual Change Initiative. • LAMM supervisor providing support • Jurisdiction leader communicating vision,

importance, providing supports for implementation

• Present Individual Change Initiatives to other staff, including site teams.

• LAS graduates meet together on regular basis

• Connecting LAS to leadership development

Jurisdiction Leadership• Establish regular monthly conference calls

with:Jurisdiction Director; LAMM Representative; LAS Representative; Organizational Intervention Representative; Project Director

• Initiate these call early in the WE relationship• Regular calls keep ‘WE central to the agency’s

work’ • Regular calls provide ongoing communication

to address arising concerns, questions, etc.

Complexity of HSA & Seneca

SF County plus Seneca, contracting partner:• Two separate agencies, 2 leaders• Vertical alignment more difficult across

separate agencies, operating procedures, etc.

• Seneca Connections is one site of Seneca Families – not working directly with Seneca Families Director
