What is Project Firstline?
In 2021, the CDC developed Project Firstline as a collaborative educational program for all healthcare workers and providers. Project Firstline provides free educational videos, teaching content, social media graphics, fact sheets, and informational posters about infection prevention and control from the CDC. Educational videos are 10, 20, or 60 minutes and are available in multiple languages. Project Firstline teaches why infection control is important and how to prevent infections.
