Review of a community needs assessment. A community needs assessment should involve identifying the cultural and religious practices of the target population, which would have revealed which items should not be included in food baskets due to religious practices. This would have allowed the program planners to make appropriate adjustments. Development of a management system deals with the day-to-day operations of the program, program evaluation comes after implementation, and identification of funding sources is a separate process altogether.
