CCHE was pleased to host this session to learn about a community-academic partnership using unique social media strategies with the Oneida Nation and Dane County Latinx and African American communities.
The talk highlighted how community influencers use responsive, culturally congruent, targeted messages and pathways intentionally designed to impact community health and community assets. Our panel of colleagues from on- and off-campus discussed how the partnership came together and highlighted community influencers’ role and key skills. They also featured the particular methods each influencer used, including corrective steps taken to refine and adjust practice mid-stream.
