HRSA seeks participation for teams from any area of the United States and its territories. Q: What costs are associated with participation?
The primary cost to participating is a commitment of time, approximately .5 to 1 FTE per team is estimated, which usually translates to 4-8 hours per week, depending on the size of the team and the number of organizations who participate as a team. This estimate includes time participating at Learning Sessions, on conference calls, interacting with the Collaborative listserv and peers. Teams should anticipate participating in each of the four Learning Sessions and expect to travel to at least two of the sessions. The first one will be held in August 2008 in the Washington DC area.
