Coalition staff, leaders, and members need training to promote coalition building and maintenance as well as ongoing technical assistance. The Coalition Technical Assistance and Training Framework uses a 6-step process to diagnose coalition strengths and challenges and provide a prescription for action. Re-evaluation after a specified time period helps determine whether a coalition adopted recommended changes in coalition participants, structures, and/or processes and progressed through stages of development. This empowerment approach helps coalition staff and members help themselves to be more effective and efficient. The framework was piloted with the Virginia Healthy Start Initiative from November 1997 to June 2001. Seven perinatal councils that focused on preventing low-weight births and infant mortality adopted 75% of the recommended actions within 1 year. Results from a pre and post-assessment tool after 3 years showed significant progress in the coalitions' ability to develop effective participants, processes, and structures
联盟工作人员、领导者和成员需要接受培训,以促进联盟的建立和维护,以及持续的技术援助。联盟技术援助和培训框架采用六步流程来诊断联盟的优势和挑战,并提供行动方案。在特定时间段后进行重新评估,有助于确定联盟是否采用了在联盟参与者、结构和/或流程方面的建议变革,并在发展阶段取得进展。这种赋权方法有助于联盟工作人员和成员让自己变得更有效率和成效。该框架于1997年11月至2001年6月在弗吉尼亚健康启动倡议中进行了试点。七个专注于预防低体重出生和婴儿死亡的围产期委员会在1年内采纳了75%的建议行动。三年后的前后评估工具结果显示,联盟在培养有效参与者、流程和结构的能力方面取得了显著进展。
