  2. Basic Steps to HMV Success • Designate Chairpeople • Develop a Cohesive Theme • Decide # of Sessions and Spacing (e.g. monthly) • Assign roles (facilitator, registrar, host) • Design brochure or flyer • Reminders prior to sessions (email, phone) • At session review rules; discussion not lecture • Provide feedback to facilitators and participants

  3. Designate Chairpeople • One or two responsible, enthused members • Experience with group process is a plus • Ability to assemble a small committee • More people involved, greater the anticipated participation

  4. Decide # of Sessions • Timing of sessions is crucial • A consistent time works best (e.g. first Sunday night of each month) • Sessions should last 90 minutes on average • Leave time for snacking and socializing

  5. Determine Roles • Select facilitators who have expertise in an area or who are comfortable running groups • Choose a registrar to take reservations and coordinate the session, low stress commitment • Pick a host who provides the location and food • Engage a broad range of (non)members

  6. Develop a Theme • Easiest to start with existing programs (Work and Worth, Fathers and Sons, etc.) • A variety of topics can work, though a theme may work best • If a variety of themes are desired, consider a round robin presentation • Themes can be broad or highly specific as long as they are of interest to men

  7. Creating Successful Themes • Highly relatable to targeted audience • Flexible enough for a number of sessions • Expansion of a previously successful topic • Allows for broadest range of participation • Thought provoking/fun/engaging/controversial
