Needs Screening & Community Resilience

During these unprecedented times, we have been continually inspired by the collaboration and resource sharing experienced across and within our network of public health professionals. Here’s two thorough resources that we think your community will be able to benefit from now and in the future:

COVID-19 & Social Determinants of Health Data Collection Instrument Repository

Formerly the COVID-19 & Food Repository, expanded on March 3, 2020 to include a broader set of instruments about health determinants.

These instruments have been shared by researchers studying COVID-19 and social determinants in good faith to promote coordinated, collaborative, efficient, and high impact work to address issues related to food in this event. Please use this repository to review measures, connect with others working in your area, and to coordinate, collaborate, and replicate measures for comparisons across time, space, and place. ​If you are planning to use measures from a shared data collection tool​, please reach out to the contact person to let them know, ask how they’d like to be recognized, and to open the lines of communication to shared analyses or other collaboration.
