Select One Priority Project
Step 4 - Select One Priority Project
Each Chapter should select one project from among those in its Recovery Plan to launch Plan implementation—this will be the Priority Project.
The support team is ready to assist each Chapter in implementation efforts for its Priority Project. However, the support team may only begin offering implementation assistance on a Priority Project after certain conditions are met.
Criteria to Select a Priority Project
A Chapter project qualifies as a Priority Project if all of the following conditions are met:
- The project is included and detailed in the Chapter Recovery Plan
- The Chapter Recovery Plan has been adopted through official Chapter Resolution
- The project is compatible with the skills of the Support Team (detailed below)
- The project is considered "doable" by Chapter Officials and the Support Team
- The project has been selected as the Priority Project through official Chapter Resolution

To leverage the assistance of the support team for a Priority Project, it is important that the project is compatible with the skills of the support team.
