This open dialogue will allow new grantees to ask questions and seek clarification regarding expectations of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the National Program Office. The overall goals and objectives of NCIN will be presented with an emphasis on the role of grantees in helping to meet program objectives. A demonstration of the NCIN website will provide grantees an enhanced understanding of how to access resources at their desktops. Participants will be encouraged to discuss challenges with program implementation and identify support needed to meet these challenges. The session will conclude with a discussion of program evaluation and data collection methodologies.
