Below are the current collaborative web sites of the MCH
Training Grantee Network. The MCH Training Grantee Network
provides grantees of the HRSA/MCHB Training Program with technical
support and services including web development, collaboration
tools, and technical assistance. Our project is designed to
meet these needs by creating a family of grantee-group oriented
web sites as requested and time-permitting. In addition to creating these
group-specific web sites, we also provide a number of services
including, eLearning systems, email discussion groups (aka
listservs), discussion forums, and other collaboration tools.
