Description

WRCAC is pleased to host virtual MDT Facilitator Rural Roundtables. These roundtables serve as a dynamic platform for learning and sharing, allowing MDT facilitators to convene, explore various topics related to MDT facilitation and teams, and exchange valuable experiences and insights with their peers. Our aim is to foster the development of a supportive network among peers who share similar challenges in rural communities, providing assistance as you navigate the intricate role of an MDT facilitator.

Each roundtable starts in a large-group format with an introduction to the topic. Participants are then placed in Zoom breakout rooms for small group discussions and resource sharing and support. Participants are encouraged to share work experiences and challenges in small groups and solicit feedback from peers. At the end, participants are brought back together in one large group for a Q&A with the experts.
