Community-based Approaches to Reducing STDs Community Engagement Toolkit_2020_english.pdf
Notes:
Version: 2020

This toolkit provides a 10-point process for engaging communities and institutional partners in STD prevention and control. Using a detailed roadmap based on the best practices and lessons learned from the Community-based Approaches to Reducing STDs (CARS) Initiative, this document is a useful tool for building effective, sustainable interventions tailored to the needs of STD-impacted communities or groups. This toolkit also includes a cautionary note after each of the major milestones of the CARS Implementation Model to help readers avoid roadblocks that may occur during the process.
Although the CARS Community Engagement Toolkit is written with a Public Health program audience in mind, the principles and practices detailed in this document are suitable to a variety of other circumstances when community involvement in an intervention effort is desired or even essential. Most, if not all, of the CARS Implementation Model elements can work across a number of health and social issues. However, the examples included in this toolkit come from STD prevention and control.
