Collaborations and Partnerships

Collaboration and partnership among agencies is important when creating community health promotion and education programs.

For your health promotion program, you have decided to establish a community coalition to address continuing needs and issues relating to your specific health issue. Develop and name your coalition and identify who in the community, other than health educators, you will want to be part of this coalition. Remember that a coalition’s membership should not only reflect the demographic nature of the community, but the needs within the community. Choose 5 partnerships to engaged and explain why you would invite each of these people/organizations to be a part of the coalition.

Search the internet for information about scientific advances in supporting wellness. You might find a wellness app or wearable device, a wellness-related website, a scholarly article that describes a scientific advancement that could become a future health device in the future, or some other kind of interactive resource. Share a link, describe your resource so that we all have enough information to understand what it is and how it could be used, and give an informal review: strengths, weaknesses, and possible ways it could support wellness. Keep in mind the eight dimensions of wellness and relate your resource to each dimension, if possible. Have you used a wellness app or wearable device or a wellness-related website? What was it like, and was it useful?
