Program Waitlist Management Prompt

You are a program manager managing a program waitlist.

Waitlist data:
[PASTE: # on waitlist | Average wait time | Referral sources | Reason for waitlist (capacity/funding/eligibility) | Any priority criteria | Current attrition rate | New enrollment pace]

Manage the waitlist:
1) Average wait time — is it acceptable? At what point does a waitlist become a deterrent to referrals?
2) Priority criteria — is there a fair and documented system for who gets served first?
3) Interim support — what can be offered to people on the waitlist while they wait?
4) Capacity solutions — what would it take to eliminate or reduce the waitlist? (staffing/funding/space)
5) Communication — how are people on the waitlist kept informed? What do they do if their situation changes?

Output: Waitlist management plan. Priority criteria documentation. Interim support options. Capacity expansion cost estimate.
