Development of an adapted glossary of implementation strategies for supporting behavioral health program uptake in faith-based communities

Adapting implementation strategy definitions to a specific project is a time-intensive process that challenges a team to carefully and creatively consider how strategies may be enacted in a specific context (e.g., faith-based communities). The consensus-based process also served as a type of cultural exchange between the project's academic partners, community partners, and consultants. The development of a project-specific glossary leverages the ability of project team members to employ implementation strategies as part of project planning and evaluation.
