Description: This announcement solicits applications for the Providing Support of Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Network (CoIIN) to Reduce Infant Mortality. The purpose of this activity is to 1) support collaborative learning, innovation and quality improvement efforts to reduce infant mortality and improve birth outcomes by providing guidance and technical assistance to Regions I, II, III, VII, VIII, IX, and X on the effective use of collaborative learning approaches as well as quality improvement (QI) principles and practices; 2) apply evidence-based strategies for reducing infant mortality; and 3) scale-up interventions to reduce infant mortality by stimulating action across states and among many partners. It is anticipated that this CoIIN cooperative agreement will: produce measurable improvements using the science of collaborative learning and quality improvement principles and practices within 12-18 months among participating states in the identified strategy areas; increase synergy among State Health Officials (SHOs), Maternal and Child Health Directors, and State and National public and private partners around evidence-based strategies to reduce infant mortality and improve birth outcomes; and create a unified message and collection of best practices based on the experiences of participating states that can be adopted and amended by other States and Jurisdictions to reduce infant mortality and improve birth outcomes.
