Doesn sustainability mean finding enough funding to continue all aspects of this complex project?
Usually it doesn’t. Successfully sustaining a complex project can consist of leaving staff in place with new capacities (for example, to deliver evidence-based programs), creating a coalition with common goals that will continue beyond the project and potentially take up new work together, changing policies or procedures, or creating a referral mechanism or other partnership infrastructure. In other words, sustaining a project may not mean that it will continue as is; it may mean instead that you have made changes in how the providers in your community will work together to provide selected program elements.
