Communicating for Health in Appalachia by Translating Science (CHATs)
Communicating for Health in Appalachia by Translating Science (CHATs) exists for the last mile of a research project: turning findings into something a clinician, policymaker, or community member in Appalachia can use.
Every engagement starts with a no-commitment initial consultation, where the team scopes your audience and goal before recommending a service.
Because CHATs specialize in rural Appalachian health communication, it’s the core to use whenever your dissemination plan needs to reach that audience.
