Are you interested in learning about what other Family Planning Program (FPP) Providers are doing to enhance outreach and project promotion efforts? The New York State Family Planning Training Center is hosting regional, in-person workshops focused on Community Participation, Community Education, and Project Promotion (CPEP). Workshops will be facilitated by Lisa Anne Schamus and Caitlin Hungate of the New York State Family Planning Training Center.

Why participate? During the workshop, participants will:

• Review NYSDOH expectations for CPEP, including evaluating CPEP activities;
• Discuss strategies for conducting needs assessments to inform CPEP activities;
• Discuss strategies for conducting outreach to partners and enhancing in-reach to clients;
• Engage in several opportunities to discuss existing and promising CPEP approaches used by FPP agencies; and
• Begin to develop a CPEP Plan including at least one outreach and in-reach activity.

Who should attend?  At least two FPP staff with needs assessment, outreach, in-reach, and evaluation responsibilities, specifically family planning program managers and administrators, health educators, and/or evaluators. We encourage FPP staff to send a team of at least two individuals to this training. FPP providers will find that cross-disciplinary team participation is essential to improving CPEP. Thus, teams that have cross-disciplinary representation will get the most out of their participation in this workshop. Individuals and agencies that participated in the CPEP Peer Learning Group hosted by the New York Family Planning Training Center will benefit from and are expected to attend one in-person workshop. 

Continuing Education: Pending approval, 4 contact hours of continuing health educator specialist (CHES) credits will be available for the workshop.
