NATIONAL SURVEY ON DISSEMINATION PRACTICES
October - December 2004

In the context of the CIHR-funded Canadian Heart Health Dissemination
Project, a national survey of all public health organizations across
Canada will be conducted over the next few months, to document levels of
organizational capacity for chronic disease prevention, current
dissemination practices for transferring innovations from one organization
to another, and levels of preventive program implementation.

In the next few weeks, a data collection team from McGill University will
be contacting senior management within chronic disease prevention
organizations across Canada to determine eligibility for inclusion in the
survey, to obtain consent, and to identify potential respondents.
Thereafter data will be collected in telephone interviews of nominated
respondents (likely project managers or other public health professionals)
from October to December 2004.

This survey will provide, for the first time, a systematic look at
variation in chronic disease prevention capacity and in dissemination
practices across Canada. The data will increase understanding on how to
plan effective programs and policy to reduce the burden of chronic disease
in Canada, and as such will provide an evidence base for sound investment
in the preventive health system in Canada.  Pilot work across Canada has
demonstrated enthusiastic support for this survey.
