On Oct. 23-24, AMCHP’s Iliana White and Anna Watson facilitated an in-person site visit and training with the Indiana Adolescent & Young Adult Health Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Network (CoIIN) team. They were joined by fellow
AYAH National Resource Center colleagues Kristin Teipel and Rachel Wallace-Brodeur, who led discussion and learning around several topics, including clinic-level quality improvement activities in demonstration sites and opportunities to revamp the marketing and promotion of well-visits and preventive services across their systems. Adolescent and Young Adult Innovation Swarm consultants Xavier Barraza and Michelle Maseroni helped the team consider ways to meaningfully engage more youth and young adults in their CoIIN-related efforts.
