Monthly Newsletter and Weekly Radar Enhancements

We have made some technical, design, and formatting updates to our Weekly Radar and Monthly Newsletter configurations. These improvements include: better image rendering on mobile devices, typography tweaks, your personal CRHESI profile, and, most importantly, a super easy tool for CRHESI members to add content to these emails.

Recently publish an article? Hosting an upcoming event? Deliver a workshop or keynote? Notice an important and relevant news item? Looking for collaborators on new project?

… Enter your update or information in this form for distribution across all CRHESI communication channels. (Of course, if you would prefer to simply email us instead, updates can still be forwarded or directed to info@crhesi.ca, as always.)

As the CRHESI ecosystem of community practitioners, academic researchers, students, and engaged citizens continues to grow, these improvements are intended to help us support one another and ‘stay in the loop’ even more effectively. Towards this end, please do not hesitate to let us know if you have any input or suggestions.

Community Update & Reception

On Thursday, November 8, CRHESI hosted its second annual Community Update & Reception event. The event featured 10 project update ‘lightning talks’ from researchers, collaborators, and practitioners, highlighting a selection of various initiatives throughout the CRHESI ecosystem. Videos of these presentations will be made available shortly. (Watch this space for more details.)

Steve Goodine was also recognized upon the completion of his term as CRHESI’s Community Co-Director on behalf of the London InterCommunity Health Centre. We will miss working with Steve and we are immensely thankful for the support, direction, and leadership he has provided over the past three years. Thanks Steve!

Research Study: Trauma and Violence Informed Care

Deadline for joining this study: February 28, 2019

Is your community-based health or social service organization considering implementing trauma- and violence-informed care? If you are working in such an organization in London, we need your help!

We are examining how organizations in London learn about and start considering TVIC as an approach to practice in their organizations. If you have been involved in this kind of thinking where you work, and you volunteer to participate, we would arrange a confidential, 20-30 minute interview at a time and place convenient to you. Questions will include how you and your organization first became aware of TVIC, and previous, current and future steps to implement it, if any.

For more information about this study, or to volunteer for this study, please contact: Tanaz Javan at tjavan@uwo.ca
