Title
CHSSN Community Radio Project 2007-2008
Abstract
In winter 2007, the CHSSN carried out a pilot project in conjunction with Townshippers’ Association to disseminate community health information via community radio to test the efficacy of using this medium to extend the outreach of the Network Partnership Initiative (NPI). Two call-in shows -- Dependencies and Mental Health -- were broadcast by CJMQ-FM in Lennoxville, and an edited recording of the show on Dependencies was re-broadcast on CJAS in St-Augustin. Based on the success of the 2007 pilot, for winter 2008 the community radio project was expanded to include more regions, a wider range of informational programming and Internet dissemination.
