The DC Healthy Communities Collaborative invites you to join in on the conversation about health in DC!
The Collaborative consists of four DC hospitals and four community health centers that came together in 2012 to address the health needs of the Washington, DC community. As part of our mission to improve health in DC, the Collaborative is developing a citywide community health needs assessment and a community health improvement plan that is responsive to the needs identified in the assessment. The final assessment will be released in June 2016.
To make sure that the community’s voice is heard, we are conducting a series of focus groups, interviews, surveys, and forums with DC residents, community-based groups, and stakeholders as part of the needs assessment process. We would like to understand your perspective on health in our city!
Refreshments will be served. Free and open to all!
Science Café 360° is an on-going series of events to provide a casual space for researchers to connect with District communities, and for the public to provide their perspective on medical research. All Science Cafés are devoted to pressing local community health needs. Previous Science Cafés focused on sickle cell disease, sleep and stress, and obesity.
Science Café 360° is an initiative involving four major DC health systems. It is supported by the Clinical and Translational Science Institute-Children’s National, a partnership between Children’s National Health System and The George Washington University, and the Georgetown-Howard
