The document outlines the key elements needed to write an effective community action plan, including a vision, values, goals, and strategic framework. It discusses preparing a community profile to understand the area's characteristics. The community action plan should then have sections for an executive summary, table of contents, introduction describing the plan's development and management, and an action plan laying out objectives, solutions, responsibilities, budgets, timelines, and expected outcomes. Supporting documents and appendices provide further details to back up the plan. The overall purpose is to thoroughly plan activities to address community issues and work towards progress.

purposes. It summarizes a longer report or proposal or a group of related
reports in such a way that readers can rapidly become acquainted with a

paragraph that clearly explains what the company does,"
according to Dave Lavinsky, president of Growthink, a Los
Angeles-based company that helps entrepreneurs develop
business plans and raise capital.
• The first paragraph needs to compel the reader to read the rest
of the summary. Perhaps you have a compelling aha! moment,
so you might start with that. If you've identified a problem in the
marketplace that isn't being adequately serviced, you might
start with that, (Hirai)
