C-LEARN
Community Resilience Learning Collaborative and Research Network
PHASE TWO: INTERVENTIONS
The purpose of Phase II was to create interventions based off of the interview data results found in Phase I. We aimed to reflect each community’s priorities, culture, strengths and experiences in the questions and materials used in the interventions. Details about the interventions themselves are described below.
Agency interventions were completed in early 2020. We began recruiting participants for the individual interventions, but recruitment was discontinued in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Phase II of C-LEARN was closed in June 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
