SUMMARY:CCR Evaluation Webinar: Leading With Community Voice
DESCRIPTION:Leading With Community Voice: Strengthening Evaluation through Mixed Methods Approaches\, Cultural Relevance\, and Grassroots Efforts with Youth \n\n\n\nLiderazgo mediante la opinión de la comunidad: mejora de la evaluación por medio de métodos mixtos\, adecuación cultural y medidas fundamentales con los jóvenes. \n\n\n\nOn behalf of the CCR-ETA 2110 Evaluation Training and Technical Assistance providers\, the Washington State Evaluation Partnership (WSEP) invites CCR-2109 recipients and their partners to a webinar about embedding community voice and cultural relevance in every step of evaluation. We will examine the grassroots multimedia campaign #KEEPITRIGHT\, a youth-led COVID-19 prevention effort that has reached over 250\,000 people with a click-through rate four times the national average. This webinar will build on the earlier training about equitable evaluation\, community engagement\, and health literacy efforts that include populations that have been historically marginalized. \n\n\n\nEn nombre de los proveedores de capacitación y asistencia técnica para la evaluación CCR-ETA 2110\, la Washington State Evaluation Partnership (WSEP\, Asociación de Evaluaciones del Estado de Washington) invita a los beneficiarios de CCR-2109 y a sus asociados a un seminario web sobre la incorporación de la opinión de la comunidad y la adecuación cultural en todas las etapas de la evaluación. Examinaremos la campaña multimedia base\, #KEEPITRIGHT\, una iniciativa de prevención del COVID-19 impulsada por jóvenes que ha llegado a más de 250 000 personas con un índice de clics cuatro veces superior al promedio nacional. Este seminario web se desarrollará a partir de la capacitación anterior sobre las medidas de evaluación equitativa\, la participación comunitaria y los conocimientos en materia de salud que incluyen a las comunidades que han sido marginadas en el pasado. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nregister now / regístrese ahora

SUMMARY:RI COVID-19 Response Evaluation - The CHW Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join the Rhode Island Department of Health for a “hotwash” session\, aimed at collecting input on the CHW experience during the COVID-19 pandemic.
