Communications
As you know from your own coalition and community work, effectively communicating the work you do is vital for engaging the populations you serve, promoting health and well-being, and organizing stakeholders. How do you create content that is meaningful to your audiences and how do you make sure your coalition or organization has the capacity to do it effectively? We offer a wide variety of trainings and services to help improve your coalition or community group's communications efforts, and can tailor these trainings to meet your needs.
