What are the toolkits and how do I use them?

The CSA toolkits contain resources to help key stakeholders communicate important, CSA-related information to others who need to know about it. Materials are tailored to each audience, addressing useful information about CSA, such as the SMS, the BASICs, and frequently asked questions. Each toolkit includes different types of documents  briefings, factsheets, brochures, and tipsheets – that can be used for different purposes (i.e. as presentations, handouts, etc.). We encourage you to use any and all documents that are appropriate for your needs. You can download and print individual documents, or download the complete toolkit by selecting the “Download Complete Toolkit” option.
