The University of Florida College of Public Health and Health Professions partnered with Peace4Tarpon under the Robert Wood Johnson Mobilizing Action for Resilient Communities (MARC) grant funding period. Together they created a 9-credit online graduate certificate in trauma-informed and resilience-based public health. Peace4Gainesville also contributed to this certificate.
This post is intended to showcase some of the work of the graduate students in the Summer C 2019 course “PHC6937: Building Resilience in Individuals and Communities for Public Health.” The goal of this course is to provide an overview of resilience and how resilience-building approaches are applied in public health; an examination of resilience-building efforts through a review of public health literature; and the opportunity to develop a public health communication campaign proposal to build resilience using the social ecological model.
The 14 graduate students enrolled in this course will be posting a summary of their Public Health Communication Campaign Proposal on our UF ACEs Connection page which required them to direct and manage the creation and development of 3 health information products (2 print and 1 multimedia) to build resilience in an identified population.
Please feel free to comment on the student projects if you would like to provide feedback!
The graduate course syllabus is attached and more information about the graduate certificate and individual courses within the certificate is posted here: https://sbs.phhp.ufl.edu/dista...-resiliency-courses/.
