We provide various formats to support you in learning from each other and experts during the CoP meetings. During monthly CoP meetings in 2022, we had 3 expert presentations to the full group, 5 times to break into small groups, and 1 meeting (in October) combining small- and large-group discussions. We also had an annual meeting with four hours to share grant teams’ findings and hear from federal staff.

Please let us know if we got the balance “right” from your perspective. 

Q5. Reflecting across the year, please mark the circle that best reflects your perspective on the amount of time scheduled for each format.

	Too much	Just right	Not enough

Discussing challenges and solutions as a whole group
Discussing challenges and solutions in small groups

Q6. Reflecting across the past year, please mark the circle below that best reflects your perspective on the CoP. [If you did not attend the annual meeting, please leave blank]

	Strongly agree	Agree	Neither agree nor disagree	Disagree	Strongly Disagree
Overall, I felt that the monthly CoP was a good use of my time

Overall, I like having 3-4 meetings a year set aside for concurrent meetings of the Quant Team, Primary Data Collection team, and discussions of emerging issues

Q7. In the text box below, please let us know what you would find useful to support you in the upcoming year. For example, you might share a topic for an expert presenter.

Q8. We are considering whether next year’s annual meeting should be virtual or hybrid (with an in-person component and a virtual component). Please indicate your interest in attending an in-person meeting. For purposes of responding to the survey, assume COVID conditions are similar to what they are now and that the meeting follows COVID precautions such as masks, vaccinations and/or testing. Please click one answer.

I would likely attend a day-long in-person meeting in DC.

I would only be interested in attending in-person if at least half of other attendees are also planning to attend in-person.

I would support a hybrid meeting but would likely attend virtually.

I would prefer a virtual annual meeting such as the one held in September.
