As our fiscal year wraps up, all of us here at the
Community Health Training Institute want to thank you for a fantastic year! Thank you to everyone who attended our trainings, forwarded our newsletters, and supported our project. We appreciate your feedback, consistent attendance, and enthusiasm for the work we do. We take all that you tell us and try to incorporate it into future trainings and events!
We'll be taking this summer to go through your feedback and create a tailored calendar for all of your training needs. Keep an eye out for any updates, but until then, have a great summer and we'll see you in September!

Fiscal Year 2017 Highlights
|
|
We trained nearly
600
coalition members, community members, and others working to promote public health all over the country with our trainings and webinars.
|
|
We led
21
trainings and webinars over the course of the year
, engaging trainers from
9
local organizations including Massachusetts Municipal Association, Massachusetts Public Health Association, and more!
|
|
Our newsletters reached nearly
4,000 people, and this year we shared about
400 trainings and events, job opportunities, and community health resources.
|
|
We added
94
coalitions to our
roster
this year, bringing our total to
405
coalitions. (If you haven't added your coalition or updated it recently,
please do so here!
)
|
|
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health is looking for applicants for two different advisory boards: The Community Health Initiative (CHI) Healthy Aging Fund Advisory Committee and the CHI Statewide Initiative Advisory Committee.
This is a great opportunity for state-wide and regional stakeholders, community members, and public health workers whose work directly impacts or reacts to the Determination of Needs Health Priorities (housing, education, employment, the built environment, violence and trauma, and the socio-cultural environment).

|
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Did your coalition or organization just finish up a CHIP and want to share your findings? Are you doing great community work and want to tell the world? Or are you working on an issue that you feel is important to highlight?
We want to hear about it! Tell us your story and there's a chance you'll be featured on
our blog.
