Interventions

  • Resources and guided facilitation — BEHAVIORAL
    Participants in the intervention arm will participate in a planning period at the beginning of the intervention period to establish the goals for the partnership. The investigators will use the prioritized list of AHD partnership features developed in prior research to guide the initial planning period and then assist the partnership members to plan to implement the corresponding strategies focused on their areas of interest (e.g., developing collaborative projects, hiring faculty, staff, or students to conduct data analysis). The investigators will use telephone, email communication, and video conferencing to communicate with AHD partnerships, regularly assess progress towards goals, and adjust goals and strategies based on the progress. One additional in person visit to each AHD partnership in the intervention arm will be made in year 2 of implementation to review goals and progress and provide additional guidance and tailored support as needed.
  • Existing resources — BEHAVIORAL
    Individuals will be referred to existing resources in the Learning Community.
