Here is a step by step program on how to build a scalable program using lessons learned and best practices from SALSA and other programs, worldwide.  It includes our four steps to success as well as eight key collective skills needed for members of the team. Each of the four steps has a set of measurable outcome metrics.

The four steps include:
