We will review it and work with you on any edits, then post it ourselves on the blog when we need a posting (or if it's time sensitive, at the right time). We'll let you know when it goes up. We're still working out the procedure for you to address any comments that come up. Let me know if you have any other questions, or would like some support during the writing process -- happy to brainstorm or react to ideas.

We wanted to take a few moments to check in with you about your CoP membership and to update you on some changes with the DiversityRx ? Your Voice project. Meeting dates and participation: There are just a few meetings left for your Community of Practice and we want to make sure everyone is getting the most out of this shared experience. Please make every effort to attend and be an active participant in the remaining meetings. While meetings of 4 or 5 participants can still be useful, everyone benefits from higher levels of participation. Your moderators and colleagues are investing time and energy into preparing for these meetings; increased participation will make that effort even more valuable for all. This is your Community of Practice?the more you invest in it, the more you will get in return. As a reminder, the remaining meeting dates (all times are EDT) for this Community of Practice are: CoP4 Fri, May 14, 2pm Fri, June 11, 2pm If you have not already marked these dates on your calendar, please do so now. Your participation is what makes this Community of Practice valuable for everyone involved. Staffing changes: Sadly, Anne is phasing out of her position as Technical Coordinator for the project because she has accepted a full-time, university position. Thankfully, we are fortunate to have Brittany Smith on our team, who is very experienced in running communities of practice using the GoToMeeting/GoToWebinar interface and she will be stepping in to take over the Technical Coordinator role for the remainder of the project. Brittany will be running the remaining CoP meetings (behind the scenes). She is cc?d above?her e-mail address is bsmith at diversityrx.org. She can also be reached through our team webinars at diversityrx.org e-mail address. Meeting invitations & change to GoToMeeting: Brittany will be sending out the invites for the remaining CoP meetings 3-5 days before the meetings. We are going to try using GoToMeeting for our future meetings, rather than GoToWebinar. GoToMeeting does not require participants to pre-register for the meeting and allows participants to join the audio portion of the meeting when they are unable to be in front a computer. We hope that this will allow more people to join the meeting. Listserv & wiki: We also hope you will take full advantage of the listserv and wiki provided for the Community of Practice. The listserv is a great way to communicate between meetings and, if there is interest, we will keep the listservs running through the DiversityRx conference in October to facilitate communication amongst the group. The wiki is the ideal place to archive resources developed during the Community of Practice, as well as those resources CoP members find most useful in their work. The wiki will be the lasting legacy of the Community of Practice, so please think about what information and resources you would like included. We hope you are continuing to find your involvement with your Community of Practice to be a valuable experience. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

This email aims to clarify therelationship between these activities. Blogs: Aspart of your requirements for being a CoP member, we have asked you to writeone blog submission during the course of the project. The blogging guidelineswe sent to you on April 23 explain how to do this. Your blog posting will beposted on the soon-to-be launched ?Voices from the field? blog, a public blogon the revamped DiversityRx.org website (see below). We imagine that most of your blogs will notbe time-sensitive, so we will add them to the blog, once or twice a week, overthe course of several months. You can blog about things you might have writtenabout on the listserv or on another topic (see the guidelinesfor ideas, or feel free to run an idea past us. Yousubmit your blog draft to me at rcchc at aol.com, and we review ittogether before we post it. We?d like to get these by June 15, 2010. Websites: Youhave also recently seen a Call for Resources for the www.diversityRx.org website. Just to clarify, we have twowebsites: www.diversityRx.org is our originalwebsite, started in 1997. It is set up using an old platform, and verydifficult to update. Now we have some grant money to revamp it, and this iswhere the blogs, the resource database, and other DiversityRx projects aregoing to live. You will also be able to create a profile on the new website,and use this directory to find others who work in the field. We hope therelaunched website will be ready by the end of June. www.diversityRxconference.org is our otherwebsite, and probably the one you are more familiar with. It was launched in2008 to host content related to our conference series, and also hostseverything related to the Your Voice project. After the www.diversityRx.org is relaunched,everything related to the Your Voice project will move there, and everything conference-relatedwill stay on the conference site. End of your CoP ?what?s next? Aseach CoP ends, we will ask the group whether it wants to continue using thelistserv with their group. We would like to make this tool available to you through December 2010, and beyond, if we secureadditional funding. Again, if funding allows and there is interest, we may beable to host additional CoP meetings if one or more of you are willing toorganize and moderate these meetings. Pleasefeel free to contact us with any questions about anything in this email? Thanksfor your participation!

The email is below, and the guidelines themselves are attached. ---------------- Dear CoP Members-- As we start moving towards the end of the formal CoP term, we wanted to get in touch with you about the blog requirement of being in a Community of Practice. As you recall from the CoP Guidelines for Participation, we've asked you to write a brief blog entry for the revamped DiversityRx website related to the issues discussed by your CoP. It can be: * an experience from your own institution * your thoughts about an issue raised during a discussion * your review of a resource or article mentioned by the group * something else? look at the attached blogging guidelines for more ideas This is a great opportunity to share the wisdom of the CoPs with a wider audience, and a good way for you to reflect on some of the lessons you?ve learned or talked about in the group. Moderators are encouraged to contribute too! The blog will be part of the revamped DiversityRx.org website, which will be launched in June. I've attached our blogging guidelines, a_nd you'll see that it's not really that intimidating or time-demanding. We'd like to get a submission from each of you by June 15 (or earlier, if you want your posting to be part of the launch). Of course you are welcome to blog as much as you want at any time, and if anyone wants to use this platform for a regular contribution, we're happy to set you up. Thanks very much for all your contributions... and we look forward to your submissions!
