Annotation

Collaboration and partnership are key strategies that help form the foundation of MCH work. Title V often serves as the convener of partners, community organizations, and families. Understanding the elements of successful collaborative efforts and the impact of partnerships and community coalitions is critical to document effectiveness of collaborative efforts. Dena Herman, PhD, MPH, RD, Professor, California State University, Northridge Adjunct; Associate Professor/Director, UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, presents a focused review of the types of collaboration measurements, from qualitative and quantitative to an analysis of frameworks and theories and social networks. This learning opportunity was originally presented for the Children's Healthy Weight State Capacity Building Program at their Learning and Networking Call (December 2023).
