Capacity Building Sessions
CDC, together with members of the organizations that received funding for CDC-RFA-DD19-1906, created the Sickle Cell Data Collection (SCDC) Capacity Building toolkit. The toolkit is a collection of resources to help programs build the foundation for an SCD surveillance system in their state. Programs will differ in methods, personnel, resources, data sources, and output, but the core components of a successful SCD surveillance system are the same.
The SCDC Guiding Framework consists of three phases:
- Phase 1: Developing multi-stakeholder collaborations;
- Phase 2: Building data infrastructure; and
- Phase 3: Sharing data findings with key stakeholders.
A series of capacity-building sessions/presentations were developed to provide a more in-depth look at the phases of the Guiding Framework. For more information, view slides from these presentationsexternal icon.
