Collective Impact Framework

SHIP uses a Collective Impact framework, which is a framework for community change based on the idea that members, organizations, and institutions must work collectively–learning together, aligning, and integrating their actions–to achieve population and systems level change. In the Collective Impact framework, the work is done by members of working groups, guided by a steering committee, with input from campus stakeholders and supported by a backbone organization.

• At CUIMC, the steering committee comprises students, faculty, and staff whose work is directly related to student well-being. Steering committee members also serve on different working groups.
• The backbone organization comprises various members of the Student Health on Haven team.
• Students from the Student Well-Being Collective serve on SHIP working groups.

Working groups are the heart of SHIP. Working groups are where students, faculty, staff, and other stakeholders come together to contribute their time, training, expertise, passion, and lived experiences to help develop and implement strategies for impactful change.
