The North Central Region Extension Community Development Program Leaders (representing twelve states) are exploring the possibility of adapting the HCI program for implementation in the North Central states having an interest in the focus and topics included in HCI. The roundtable session at CDS offers a unique and valuable opportunity to hear from a wide array of community development researchers and practitioners. Their input will help determine if there is an interest in making HCI available to more states and expanding its building block offerings. CDS members will be kept informed through Vanguard, emails, social media channels, etc. In addition, members will be kept informed of train-the-trainer HCI workshops if the response from participants is positive and they have interest in expanding the HCI program to other communities in the U.S.
