Who should be involved in completing the self-assessment?
Team Approach. Creating a Promoting Active Communities team or working within an existing health or non-motorized transportation coalition will ensure that a group of interested citizens is formed in your community that can act on the information you learn. Meeting on a regular basis during and after the PAC assessment process will help your community leaders to identify current community assets and refine an active living vision. This team can also use the knowledge gained through completing the PAC assessment to make improvements in the community that will promote healthy living. Having a diverse team from your community working together also makes it easier to find the information necessary to complete the assessment. It may be helpful to have one person act as the coordinator for the group. Suggested Team Members. It is likely that there are many people in the community interested in promoting physical activity. Be creative in finding people to include in your PAC team.
