Keys to Effective Spread and Scale-up:Lessons Learned from Other Fields andSectorsJOE MCCANNON4.2.2014
Defining Terms (Stages of Expansion) Prototype: Test and adapt new ideas to learn whatworks in your system. Pilot: Apply to a slightly larger, more variedaudience. Spread: Actively engage individuals outside thepilot adopt the effective practice, reaching thelargest audience possible. Scale-up: Address the infrastructure issues thatarise during spread.

100,000 Homes Campaign Aim: House 100,000 of America’s most vulnerablehomeless by mid-2014. The math: 2-3 megacities to house 40% of their unshelteredpopulation;50 high-burden communities to house 300 per year;75 middle-burden communities to house 100 per year;125 lower-burden communities to house 100 each;10,000 families.
