Question: Thank you for your reply about the violence root cause (why) diagrams. I will look through the resources you provided. As we try to work with more partners outside of public health, we are finding less awareness of the downstream/upstream analogy and how it applies to specific examples. Let me know if you'll like to somehow collaborate to help fill this gap. In order to build multi-sector partnerships, I think this is a foundational piece worth building.

Answer:

Hi Matthew,

You are most welcome, I can only hope that you'll find something useful in the myriad CTB resources offered yesterday; admittedly, kind of a shot in the dark. If you don't find anything suitable to your needs let me know and I'll go outside the CTB to help you find those pesky diagrams. To your question about collaborating with the CTB, I suggest contacting the Work Group for Community Health and Development as they will know far more about such collaborations than I do:
