Abstract
Funders, service providers, stakeholders, and community members often have a shared desire for activities and ideas to be sustained beyond the period of grant funding. Sometimes, along with this desire is confusion over the best route to sustainability, and how practices can be optimized to ensure sustainability.
The purpose of this research brief is to provide information for stakeholders to optimize the likelihood of sustaining successful practices and collaborative relationships that were developed through NYS Success. The research brief begins with a literature review on sustainability followed by findings from stakeholder focus groups and interviews, highlighting what aspects of Systems of Care (SOCs) can/should be sustained. The brief concludes with barriers to sustainability and strategies to help mitigate these barriers.
