Often, organizations addressing a common health problem, are working in isolation from one another. Interdisciplinary partnerships are the cornerstone of creating successful and sustainable health interventions, yet there are few models to guide this work. The collective impact model offers a structured framework, rooted in interdisciplinary collaboration, to achieve change and solve complex problems with a shared vision and goal.

The DC Network for Expectant and Parenting Teens (DC NEXT!) is a collective impact network of young parents, community providers, educational institutions, health care agencies, and government partners organized around a mutual goal of promoting access to sexual and reproductive healthcare for adolescents in Washington DC. Using DCNEXT! as an example, this workshop will review the five conditions of collective impact: (1) Common Agenda: development of a shared understanding of the problem and a joint approach to solving it. (2) Shared Measurement Systems: consistent data collection and measurement to allow information sharing to facilitate continuous improvement and accountability. (3) Mutually Reinforcing Activities: coordination of activities across organizations to align with a shared vision. (4) Continuous Communication: regularly scheduled and consistent systems for communication in order to share information, data, and progress and allow for collaborative input, trust building, and collective decision making. (5) Backbone Support Organizations: dedication of staff to assist with the collect impact process and goal achievement.

The collective impact model is particularly useful in the post pandemic world, an unchartered arena in which collaboration, innovation, and constant evaluation are necessary to best promote pediatric health and wellness.
