During 2023, we led in-person workshops at the Western Forum for Migrant and Community Health, the Midwest Stream Forum, the East Coast Stream Forum, the National Conference for Agricultural Worker Health, the Northwest Regional Primary Care Association Spring Summit, and the California Primary Care Associations California Social Health Network Panel on Cross-Cultural Collaborations. We did not present any virtual conference workshops this fiscal year. We had two in-person trainings, one on Motivational Interviewing and Difficult Conversations at the Blue Ridge Medical Center in Arrington, Virginia, and an Outreach Worker training in Greenville, South Carolina for the South Carolina Primary Care Association. In our various trainings and workshops, we had over 443 participants, including health centers, community-based organizations, education, and leadership staff (including Board members). From February to July 2023, Health Outreach Partners (HOP) collaborated with Special Olympics, Inc. (SOI) to provide technical assistance in finalizing, distributing, and summarizing the Center for Inclusive Health Stakeholder Survey. The purpose of this survey is to help SOI develop tools and resources stakeholders would find most useful to help make healthcare more inclusive and accessible for those with intellectual disabilities. We collected 197 responses; over 51% reported being employed by a direct healthcare provider, and 22% reported being from community health centers. Also, during this period, HOP conducted 32 Learning Collaborative sessions, all web-based interactive peer learning training. Twenty-four of the sessions were in partnership with other NTTAP organizations, while HOP led 8 on our own. We reached a total of 236 unique individuals and 138 health centers during these sessions. HOP authored 10 total publications and one health education resource in this fiscal year for a total of more than 2170 downloads and page views combined. Among those publications were the TA articles addressing Diabetes Across the Lifespan, the SDOH screening Resource, Vol 3, Opioids- A Patient Resource, Sharing Their Stories: Documenting the True Impact of Transportation Barriers on Patient Health, and our new Organizational Self Care Assessment Tool. Additionally, the Special and Vulnerable Populations/Diabetes Task Force published a Summary Report of Resources based on activities from the last year. Those can be found at www.chcdiabetes.org. Those resources have had 2,333 downloads since publication in May 2023.
