REACH-OUT (Research, Engagement and Action on COVID-19 Health Outcomes via Testing)

DATE: 2022
AUDIENCE: Public
TOPIC(S): Community Engagement, Best Practices

Used and developed by Colorado Community Engagement Alliance Against Health Disparities (CO-CEAL), iHeard Colorado is a community-facing informational website focused on addressing disinformation and misinformation related to COVID-19 and other public health-related topics. Each week, the team surveys a panel of local residents asking what they've heard, seen, or read about a range of health topics (updated regularly), including COVID-19, in the last seven days. If a respondent reports exposure to a topic, questions are asked about where they heard it from. Combining the metrics in an algorithm, the team assigns priority levels and a list of top priorities.
