ImproveCareNow Engagement Campaign Director, Chris Keck, has announced that four Community Engagement Learning Series (CELS) trainings will be offered in summer 2018. CELS trainings - designed collaboratively by patients, parents, clinicians and ImproveCareNow staff members - are intended for interested ICN community members and teams as a way to share best practices and introduce new skills in an active learning environment. Summer 2018 sessions will focus on volunteer recruitment, team and relationship building, leadership development and using personal storytelling to explain and make change in health care.
Join Us - Summer 2018 Community Engagement Learning Series Trainings:
- Best Practices for Patient/Parent Volunteer Recruitment
- Relationship Building to Support Team Development
- How to Build an Engagement Team Part 1: Snowflake Model & Team Roles
- Story of Self, Story of Us, Story of Now: How to talk About ImproveCareNow to Build Your Team
Community Engagement Learning Series trainings will all be offered via webinar. Training information & RSVP will be shared on our Events & Opportunities page. Trainings are free and open to any interested person and are recommended for ImproveCareNow teams seeking to develop and expand their family engagement work. When we learn together we can improve the lives of many more children with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
