Dear Community-Engaged Scholarship Colleagues,
We are excited to announce that registration is now open
for CCPH’s 2015 Regional Community Partner Forums happening this fall:
• Rocky
Mountain Region - November 13 in Denver https://ccph.memberclicks.net/forum-denver
• Upper
Midwest Region - November 20 in Minneapolis https://ccph.memberclicks.net/forum-minneapolis
• Northeast
Region - December 3 in Boston https://ccph.memberclicks.net/forum-boston
Each regional forum is a free event open to community
leaders and community-based organizations that are interested or involved in
research as a tool to advance health equity and social justice. For more
information on the forum, please visit here: https://ccph.memberclicks.net/forum-overview
The overall goal of the 2015 Regional Community Partner
Forums is to support the ability of community-based organizations and community
leaders to play significant roles as partners in research, ultimately ensuring
that the results of research are used to eliminate health disparities and
achieve health equity in their communities. Specifically, the regional forums
aim to:
1. Equip
community leaders with the knowledge and skills needed to successfully
negotiate community-academic research partnerships, fully engage as partners in
health disparities research and ensure that research results are used to
address health disparities in their communities;
2. Foster
sustainable regional networks for community partner peer mentoring and
professional development;
3. Connect
regional efforts to CCPH's Community Network for Research Equity & Impact's
(CNREI) previous work and national efforts to advocate for community partners
in research.
Like the forums that preceded them, the 2015 Regional
Community Partner Forums are uniquely designed “by and for” community partners
to address the professional development and peer support they need to enhance
their capacity for community-engaged research and community-academic research
partnerships.
