Technical Assistance (TA)
CAI will provide an array of TA to support policy and service implementation, customized to meet the needs of individual agencies in Manhattan and Brooklyn. We have provided TA to hundreds of chemical dependence and health and human service agencies to support tobacco control policy implementation and interventions into their services. This includes the development of tobacco control curricula and training and TA services that are based on best practices and evidence-based interventions. CAI is well known for providing effective and practical TA that supports the effective delivery of services and implementation of programs.
We develop and provide TA using a variety of methods including on-site TA with one or more agencies, site visits, and distance learning techniques including interactive online programs, webinars, online discussion boards and learning communities, phone and email consultations and facilitated conference calls. We can customize TA to address your specific needs, and work with you to provide ongoing support, address challenges that arise, and provide opportunities for exchange and ongoing learning.
