Apologies for cross-posting.Management Sciences for Health (MSH) and the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) have created the *Community Health Centers Around the World: An International Exchange* project. The project forms part of the Development Education Program administered by USAID's Office of Private and Voluntary Cooperation. One of the major goals of the Development Education Program is increased US public awareness of international development, including greater interest, understanding, and participation in US public and private international development efforts.
The project's Web site <http://erc.msh.org/chc> provides information on the history, goals, and plans the MSH project; information on how to subscribe to the CHC-L mailing list; and access to an Electronic Resource Center (ERC), where community health providers in the US can find resources to learn more about the work of community health centers worldwide, including:
- The ERC Member Database is a searchable database which contains profiles of health professionals from around the world and their e-mail addresses.
- The ERC Library provides access to an extensive collection of information and publications produced by Management Sciences for Health and other organizations working in reproductive health and family planning management.
- The ERC Calendar provides a list of upcoming family planning, reproductive health, and health related conferences, seminars, and events worldwide.
- ERC Forums are held on critical management issues for individuals interested in health and family planning. These forums, held through electronic mailing lists, are designed to foster discussion on questions of importance to health and family planning managers around the world.
