My main concern

The one thing I most want addressed
Two sentences is enough.

Three questions to ask

Question 1
Question 2
Question 3

What has already helped

Supports, people, or services that made a difference
It is also fine to note what did not help.

Who will follow up

Name and role
The next step, and the date it should happen
