Network Mapping We are collecting information to draw a beginning map of our network. We know from research about change that understanding our network helps us build effective relationships and solve tough problems. Network maps have been powerful tools in other collaboratives such as the Pittsburgh VA and Regenstreif Institute work on MRSA. So, please take just a few minutes to fill out our questionnaire.
