Managing Effective Coalitions 2019-2020

Come chat once a month with colleagues who are managing, leading, or supporting coalitions in their community.  We will explore successes, challenges, ideas, and solutions for building effective coalitions that create and sustain lasting change.

A Community of Practice is a group of professionals who come together to discuss a topic or issue they all have in common. By joining this Community of Practice, you are saying you have something to share from your own work with coalitions - and that you have things that you want to learn, to advance your practice in this area.

The Managing Effective Coalitions Community of Practice will be facilitated and the topic areas listed below will serve as jumping-off points for the conversation each month. There will not be any formal presentation, though, and the conversation will be driven by the participants.

Anyone working with a coalition tackling issues related to public health, behavioral health, or environmental health located in the states of CO, MT, ND, SD, UT, or WY is invited to participate. You do not need to attend every month.

We will meet each month via video, using Zoom, so you'll need a camera on your computer, laptop, tablet, or phone. Being able to see each other face-to-face will help us connect with each other and have a good dialogue.

Zoom is free to download and easy to use. New to Zoom? Don't worry - we're here to help! You can drop in to our Zoom Office Hours to try out your connection. Check the calendar for upcoming Office Hours - or reach out to us at info.rmphtc@ucdenver.edu.
