Focus on Families and Culture: Overview and Discussion

In order to develop culturally-grounded programs it is important to understand the roles and influence of different family and community members related to reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health. Focus on Families and Culture allows for those involved either in coordinating formative research studies or for those preparing a scope of work for qualitative community formative research. The tool was developed by CORE Group member, Grandmother Project – Change through Culture, through a small grant funded by The TOPS Program.

Please join Judi Aubel, Executive Director of Grandmother Project – Change through Culture, for a presentation and discussion event around the tool.

Please note that there is limited seating capacity.
