Hepatitis C Support Group
Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.
Hi Folks!
You all may or may not know me, but my name is Jesse and I work in the Member Care department here at DailyStrength.
About a month ago we created a feature for the "Depression" support group, called "Community Leaders". Community Leaders are members who will be here to help encourage positive member interaction, member involvement, and foster a sense of community at DailyStrength. Along with helping members obtain and receive positive support, Community Leaders greet new members, find emerging trends, offer advice to members who post discussion topics, and also help us locate clear cases of abuse and spam.
You can recognize Community Leaders by a "CL" avatar badge, similar to the Team DS badge you see next my avatar.
The Community Leader feature was a tremendous success in the Depression support group, so we're going to be adding Community Leaders for additional support groups!!! To start things off, I am very pleased to announce Mckenzie as the first Community Leader for the "Hepatitis C" support group. Mckenzie has continually offered exemplary advice and support to other members on the site. So starting immediately youll see the Community Leader badge next her avatar!
I should note that while the Community Leader badge will be visible across the entire site, for now Mckenzie will focus on being a Community Leader for the Hepatitis C Support Group.
Were currently recruiting additional vibrant members such as Mckenzie for this role, and well be sure to notify you all when this happens. In the meantime, lets give Mckenzie a big high-five and congratulate her for taking on this new role.
CLOSING TOPICS:
Community Leaders will also have the ability to Close Topics. Topics which have been closed will still be visible on the boards, but will no longer allow new replies.
Team DS and the Community Leaders can use this tool to help curtail clear cases of abuse (such as spammers and trolls). If a CL has closed a topic, he/she can send Team DS a message notifying us that theyve closed a topic. Well then be able to review the threads and determine whether or not they should be deleted, re-opened or remain closed.
Underneath the original closed topic youll see some text which reads, This Discussion is Closed". The Team DS member or Community Leader who closed the thread will be able to add a note in order to provide more details. This note can be found directly underneath the This Discussion is Closed text.
What do you all think? Ill check back in on this post in a bit.
