THRIVE Team Spotlight
A tremendous collaborative effort led by our University of Michigan colleagues has made the MPOG
clinician-facing webpages on the MPOG website possible. These webpages have been shared through the
CCC updates in prior newsletters however the focus on the relevant educational components that are two
of the five key drivers for the success of THRIVE including shared understanding & fidelity of interventions
is worth time in the spotlight. As preparation continues for initiating enrollment in August, clinician
education is at the forefront and these resources are a primary focus for all clinical providers and
healthcare team members who will be caring for THRIVE patient participants.
All THRIVE team members are encouraged to visit https://mpog.org/thrive-clinician-educational-
resources/ to click through, read/watch the educational content provided to clinician partners.
