Welcome!

 

In this issue we introduce the Atlantic Region’s funded projects and contact information to better enable you to get in touch with one another. We’ve also included a list of completed projects.

In future issues we plan to follow a short and simple format:

 

• News, views and updates on current activities and findings on page 1. Send us anything you’d like to share with other projects and we’ll try to include it.
  
  
• Project profiles on page 2 and 3. The heart of the newsletter will be comprised of brief profiles of projects. Profiles will be informal, interesting and fun to read while focusing on aspects of the experience that may not have shown up in the final report. Tell us what you’d like to know about other projects’ experiences so we’ll know what questions to ask!
  
  
• Contact information on page 4. This will contain contact information for all funded projects and for the PPCP Atlantic program consultant.

Our goal for Projects Plus is to encourage a sense of community among projects. We hope that sharing stories will encourage networking, communication, collaboration and information sharing.

Let us know what you think. We want this newsletter to give you the kind of information you want and need. Tell us if Projects Plus works for you, and if not, tell us what we can do to fix it.
