The plan focuses on power-building in TEA by identifying key metrics like voter registration and coalition engagement. These metrics show the effectiveness of outreach and engagement efforts, helping to drive political and social influence. For example, increasing voter registration through targeted campaigns boosts civic participation, while improving coalition engagement ensures active collaboration and resource sharing.
Public recognition and funding acquisition are crucial for establishing TEA as a national model, attracting media and financial support. Furthermore, volunteer activation reflects community involvement, essential for sustaining long-term initiatives. Encouraging volunteer participation through social media and incentive programs enhances overall community-driven goals.
