This document discusses effective SOAR steering committees and meetings. It recommends that steering committees include representatives from agencies that serve people with mental illness, substance use disorders, homelessness, and disabilities. The committees guide SOAR implementation, address challenges, and monitor outcomes. Meetings work best when an agenda is set in advance, action items are assigned, and follow up occurs. Sample tools are provided to help with committee roles, composition, agendas, and action planning. Creating effective SOAR leadership through local and state steering committees can help expand SOAR and improve access to disability benefits.
