Communication Protocols

This handout on Communication Protocols is part of the Active Implementation Hub (AI Hub), a free online learning environment for use by any stakeholder — practitioners, educators, coaches, trainers, purveyors — involved in active implementation and scaling up of programs and innovations.  It includes an overview, tools, and examples. The AI Hub is developed and maintained by the State Implementation and Scaling-up of Evidence-based Practices Center (SISEP) and the National Implementation Research Network (NIRN).

Communication is important for any program or innovation. Intentionally developing and using linking communication protocols for new or existing programs and innovations establishes a transparent feedback process and furthers the development of a hospitable policy, funding, and
operational environment.
