Background: This simulation is based on an in-person simulation developed by the CDC. Faculty from the Center for Health IPE and the Steve Hicks School of Social Work adapted it to a virtual format to reflect contemporary issues. Utilizing both real-play and role-play methodologies, participants are placed in interprofessional teams and learn to engage in a community task force meeting to propose an intervention using a 6-step improvement model. Each team is facilitated by an advanced learner who received training on interprofessional, small group facilitation. This simulation is led by Center for Health IPE in partnership with Austin Community College Health District and UT Austin partner programs.
