The CDC Foundation has engaged AASA as a dissemination partner to share user-friendly, actionable information relevant to our constituents. We will also gather Success Stories from our constituents that highlight innovative strategies to overcome barriers in implementing COVID-19 mitigation strategies, promote health, and facilitate student learning. AASA will assist in increasing awareness of the evidence-based information collected, identify the appropriate mechanism to translate materials tailored for our stakeholders, and disseminate those materials while translating the material into applicable field-based content.
