Act Early Ambassador Training and CDC-AUCD Research Grantee Meeting Held

March 9, 2012

Training for the new cohort of Act Early Ambassadors was held in January, at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) campus in Atlanta, GA. The training provided the Ambassadors with additional information on the Learn the Signs. Act Early. initiative, their responsibilities as an Act Early Ambassador, how to utilize available resources to help promote the Learn the Signs. Act Early. campaign, and opportunities to network with other Ambassadors.

Act Early Ambassadors were later joined by CDC-AUCD research grantees for a meeting that highlighted research related to early intervention and the Learn the Signs. Act Early. campaign. This meeting provided Ambassadors and grantees opportunities to network and discuss Research Topics of Interest (RTOIs) and Collaborative Research Awards (CRAs) that are examining aspects of the campaign.
