The goal is to jointly develop an interdisciplinary community health information curriculum and create a network of practice throughout the Midwest focused on meeting information needs for low-income and rural communities. Specific aims of the grant are to create information and curricular resources that will be used within SISLT and widely distributed to the LIS education community and libraries, develop health information outreach and programming skills with collaborators and students, train a student cohort to lead community health information networks, and expand a community empowerment framework to library education. Working with MU\u2019s School of Health Professions (SHP) and the Department of Health Management &amp; Informatics (DHMI), the Catalysts for Community Health (C4CH) program will engage 12 Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) students in experiential and field-based learning as resources for healthy communities through information partnerships in underserved communities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The three-year\ngrant period will include 1) forming and supporting a cohort of students\n(hereafter referred to as Catalysts for Community Health, or C4CH) who will\nfocus on health and wellbeing and complete coursework while remaining in their\nown communities, 2) developing a cross-disciplinary curriculum for LIS students\nthat focuses on community health issues and information, 3) building local\nnetworks for information services that includes both libraries and community\nhealth settings (e.g., health clinics, public health departments, senior\ncenters, nursing homes, Boys and Girls Clubs, rural hospitals, and school-based\nprograms), and 4) preparing students to assess, develop, and provide public\nprograms using open-access health information resources, including traditional\nand alternative resources. The twelve C4CH students will attend online classes\nin LIS, DHMI, and SHP, and work together to develop services and information\nportals that enhance community health information through involvement and outreach\nin their communities throughout the Midcontinental United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MU-SISLT is the lead applicant on a collaborative three-year community catalyst Project Grant with MU-HSL, and NNLM-MCR.
