Priorities for Short-Term Technical Assistance |
|
|
View PDF
Given that resources are limited, we may not be able to provide direct financial assistance, such as funding particular projects for some areas. However, we are exploring the possibility of providing short-term technical assistance that would enhance your state's ability to collect supplemental data. Please indicate your preference for short-term technical assistance from CDC, using '1' for your highest priority. |
Respondents were also asked to prioritize their short-term needs for technical assistance among 4 possibilities: staff training, rapid assessment tool kits, meeting support, and the creation of a listserve. Of these, staff training, rapid assessment tool kits, and meeting support emerged as the top 3 priorities (see Table 9).
