• Identify opportunities to improve access for producers who have been underrepresented in past initiatives.
• Support stakeholder engagement and new funding opportunities to ensure long-term success.
Deliverables
• A roadmap for scaling the program over time, aligned with the CAP's 2030 and 2045 goals.
• Milestones, roles, and responsibilities for successful program implementation.
• Recommendations for program monitoring and evaluation.

• Develops and effectively implements both strategic and operational project management plans.
• Generates innovative, data-driven, and result-oriented solutions to complex challenges.
