As a follow-up, I want to introduce you to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/injury\/successstories\/storyBuilder.html\">story builder tool<\/a> available at the CDC Injury Prevention and Control web site. The story builder takes you through three steps to produce an attractive, well-written program success story. Each step offers downloadable Microsoft Word documents to walk you through the process.<\/p>\n<p>Step 1: The worksheets are designed to gather and organize project information for your story. I think it would be interesting to use this step as a participatory activity. You could pull together your project team or a group of stakeholders to talk through questions in this worksheet. The discussion would help group members articulate the program\u2019s value from their perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Step 2: This step provides a story builder template to write your story, section by section. Each section has a field to develop a paragraph of your story, with some tips for writing in a compelling, user-friendly way. Each completed field prepares you for the final step.<\/p>\n<p>Step 3: Here, you can download a layout template, where you transfer the paragraphs from your story builder template into the layout. Because this is a Word document, you can change background design, font, or even the size and placement of pictures and call-out quote boxes.<\/p>\n<p>If you are thinking of trying your hand at program success stories, this story building web page provides some useful DYI tools to help you get started.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/neo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2015\/07\/stockfresh_2040353_typewriter-what-is-your-story_sizeS-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2889\" src=\"\/neo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2015\/07\/stockfresh_2040353_typewriter-what-is-your-story_sizeS-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;What is Your Story&quot; typed on paper in an old typewriter\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, I wrote about program success stories.
