Are you trying to get more impact, capacity, or clarity from a partnership that isn’t quite delivering? Do you need more from a collaborative partner?

In today’s public health environment, effective partnerships are essential to advance programs, sustain initiatives, and meaningfully engage communities most affected by health inequities. This interactive workshop introduces the Collaboration Continuum as a practical framework to assess, strengthen, and adapt collaborative relationships to better support program goals and population health outcomes. Presenters will highlight strategies for initiating, managing, maintaining, and recalibrating partnerships as needs, contexts, and capacity change.

Participants will engage in discussion-based activities to assess a real‑world partnership and identify concrete strategies to move it to a more effective and sustainable level. To prepare, attendees are encouraged to identify a current partnership or collaborative relationship to focus on during the session. Register for the workshop!

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
-Identify strategies for adapting collaborative relationships to enhance programmatic outcomes for populations experiencing health disparities
-Define the key steps along the collaboration continuum
-Differentiate the appropriate collaborative relationships needed to move your public health initiatives forward with partners
