Submissions for the Public Launch of CES4Health.info! The Community-Campus Partnerships for Health is looking for products from service-learning, community-based participatory research or community-based programs that are in forms other than journal articles. One challenge for community-engaged scholars is the lack of mechanisms for peer review and dissemination of diverse products like documentaries, training manuals, policy briefs and curricula. CES4Health.info is a new web-based portal designed to meet that challenge! They are looking for diverse products of health-related community-engaged scholarship to be included in the public launch of CES4Health.info this fall. They define "health-related" broadly to include, for example, health care, public health, health policy and the social determinants of health (eg, education, food security, housing, income and its distribution, and social support, to name a few).
Products can be submitted at any time, but those received by September 1 will have the greatest chance of completing the peer review process in time to be included when the site goes "live."
