Arboreta Group researched and developed the following assessment tool based on current best practices for CBOs (Community Based Organizations) in Policy, Systems, and Environmental change to support community health and wellness. The PoP program places unique emphasis on the importance of building authentic partnerships between CBOs and community members to build their capacity to lead change in their own communities. Arboreta Group recognizes that CBOs have a variety of skills and strengths. Organizations are not expected to excel in all areas of the assessment, but rather use this tool to measure their current capacity in each indicator to identify the areas of growth they want and/or need to prioritize.
