Community Outreach-Patient Empowerment (COPE) is a program based in Gallup, NM that focuses on providing health education and assistance to the Navajo Nation community. They have been instrumental in training a contact tracing workforce to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 on the reservation, utilizing innovative technology platforms such as the CommCare application. COPE's experienced team has trained over 500 users, including community health representatives, public health workers, and volunteers, to effectively conduct contact tracing using real-time data collection and secure information management.
With a strong emphasis on collaboration, COPE works closely with partner organizations like Brigham and Women's Hospital and Partners In Health to ensure the success of their training programs. They have also welcomed volunteers from various backgrounds, including MIT students and interns from Din College, UNM, and Ft. Lewis College. Through their dedication and commitment, COPE continues to bridge the gap between the Navajo Nation community and healthcare services, making a positive impact on the health and well-being of the community they serve.
