Public health professionals shouldn’t go it alone. Relationships can build capacity and resilience, increase communicators’ roles in supporting communities, and strengthen confidence in public health. Especially in the midst of political, climate, and social change, effective cross-sector partnerships and community-based collaborations can help communicators engage more deeply and share stronger stories to improve community health outcomes.
This webinar will provide an overview of how community engagement can strengthen public health communication and offer storytelling tips for sharing the initiatives and impacts of these partnerships.
