Abstract
This report provides a framework for TB prevention and control programs for use in planning new intervention strategies and strengthening existing ones through partnership formation. The report explains how to forge partnerships, why partnership formation is important, and how the formation benefits the partners and the community. It discusses successful health-related community partnerships; covers steps in partnership building; and includes information on types of partnerships, such as networks, task forces, and advisory committees, and their purposes. The report includes a toolkit section that provides further information on coalition building, marketing and media relations, and resource acquisitions. The guide and toolkit emphasize reaching and involving nontraditional partners in TB prevention and control efforts.Publisher:
