About this Event

Who Should Attend

This live, virtual training series is designed for identified Communities That Care (CTC) Facilitators (i.e., sometimes called CTC Coordinators or CTC Mobilizers) who will guide their local community through the five-phases of the CTC process.

Training Information

The training is held over a 3-week period and is interactive. It is delivered in a series of 2-hour modules: one module takes place the prior to the main training week, and a final 2-hour module is scheduled during the third week. During the main week of training, participants will be in a virtual classroom for two, 2-hour modules on most days and will have work to do individually when they are not logged on.

This training experience includes presentations, breakout room conversations, large group discussions, and a small group assignment where participants will be required to coordinate a meeting for their team (outside of the whole group classroom time). To participate fully, trainees are required to access to the internet via a computer/Laptop (not a mobile device or tablet) with a camera and microphone.

Training Objectives

As a result of participating in this training, participants will be able to:

Explain the CTC process and its scientific foundation
