[H+T--Friends] Communicating with Health Professionals

A research effort of TRB that the Health and Transportation Subcommittee has been following is now complete. It produced a Guidebook and accompanying materials to help the communication process between health and transportation professionals. I would hope that you take a moment and check out the Guidebook and consider attending the webinar being put on by the contractor. ------------------------------------ Connecting Transportation and Health: A Guide to Communication and Collaboration is designed as a resource for transportation professionals to communicate and work in tandem with the public health sector through the federal, state, regional, and local scale. This guidebook was prepared for National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) 25-25, Task 105.   The Guidebook, a brochure that provides a brief overview of the Guidebook, a PowerPoint presentation summarizing the project, and a report detailing the development of the Guidebook are available at http://bit.ly/TransportationHealthCommunicationsGuidebook. Online Presentation.  On April 30, 2019, 1:00-2:30 ET, an online overview presentation will be held to present the guidebook and walk through the resources it contains. This overview will be an opportunity for transportation professionals to understand how the Guidebook works, to learn about transportation and health communications in practice, and to interact with presenters to ask questions germane to transportation and public health communications and coordination.
