Regional Network Collaborating Organization (RNCO)

The purpose of the Regional Network Collaborating Organization (RNCO) is to provide coordination across all states and with injury and violence prevention (IVP) organizations to share scientific evidence and programmatic best practices. RNCOs conduct regional activities, such as peer to peer networking, mentoring, and training. In fall 2017, RNCOs will launch new National Peer Learning Teams (NPLT) to connect partners across the country to focus on a specific topic area related to injury and violence prevention: child abuse and neglect, sexual and intimate partner violence, motor vehicle crash injury prevention, traumatic brain injury and systems thinking.

Five of the 23 Base funded states receive RNCO funding include: Colorado, Maryland, Massachusetts, North Carolina and Washington.
