Prestige provides a measure of relationship productivity and was measured using normalized indegree; the higher the indegree score, the more highly productive the relationship was considered to be and the higher the prestige (28). An equation for calculating normalized indegree is provided in Appendix B. L = lead agency, C = coalitions, SC= statewide coalition, CT = contractor, V = voluntary agency/advocacy group, O = other agency.
