Learning Community Series Draft Report - Recommended Best and Promising Practices on Technology-Mediated Services for Quitlines


Dear Members,

We are excited to release the Learning Community Series Draft Report, Recommended Best and Promising Practices on Technology-Mediated Services for Quitlines, and to invite your comments.  This report contains draft recommendations for Quitlines on technology-mediated services including Text, Web and Apps that are effective for improving reach, engagement, and outcomes. 

You are invited to provide feedback on the draft recommendations in writing.  The following questions may be helpful to consider:

  1. Are these recommendations reasonable?
  2. Do these recommendations seem based on solid evidence?
  3. Are there any changes you suggest to the recommendations?
  4. What resources, training or technical guidance will you need to implement the recommendations by the proposed date?
  5. Are there any additional comments you have?


How to provide feedback

Join the Forum discussion in the Learning Communities portal. A special forum thread was created for the release of this report which can be located here

This is a great opportunity to be able to share your thoughts and reflections alongside your peers and colleagues in the field.  It is simple and involves signing into your NAQC account, clicking on the ‘Learning Communities Portal Banner’ or ‘Feature Button’ and clicking on ‘Join group’, and ‘confirm’ once prompted.  Once you join you will not have to repeat the same process.  For more information on how to join the portal, please review the User Guide or contact naqc@naquitline.org.
 
You can also share your feedback directly with me at LKrupski@naquitline.org. I am also available to answer any associated questions.
 
Additionally, a webinar is planned for October 25th (please save the date) to provide you more background on the development of the recommendations and provide another avenue for feedback. 

Specific communications about the webinar will be sent next week. 

We anticipate publishing the full Learning Community Report in November 2021.
