Strength is in our culture, but let us show you our success, not use your measurements of success… We are developing our own workforce, but not getting recognition because you use your measurements to measure us… We cant only treat children, we have to treat the whole family NA Community Leader

A Change in Strategy is Needed their role should not be limited to just being subjects of research While it is important to conduct research involving diverse communities, their role should not be limited to just being subjects of research. Partnerships should be developed they can participate fully in the formulation, design, implementation, and evaluation of promising and best practices models Partnerships should be developed with diverse communities so they can participate fully in the formulation, design, implementation, and evaluation of promising and best practices models.

Community Rationale Community demand Incorporation of local knowledge which overcome community distrust of academic research Provides resources (e.g. funds, training, job opportunities for communities) Active participation of the target population Source: Ahmed,SM, NIH Council of Public Representatives, April 2010.

The Multi-way Decision Matrix What outcomes distinct are associated with different intervention approaches? How do characteristics of target population affect outcomes? How are outcomes affected by history, resources, and contexts? O ipc|t The conditional probability of an outcome, for this type of intervention with this population in this context, given what is known at the present time. Source: Rapkin, 2010

20 CTSAs Community Engagement: Where are we at? Source: Michener, L., 2010 There is a progression to community engagement that could be characterized in three phases: 1.Discovering each other - gifts, strengths, needs, and preferences - how to work together, how not to, and to what aims. This generally takes time, can be done well or poorly, and has been the focus of much of the CE KFCs efforts. 2.Beginning to collaborate on projects of common interest - including identifying opportunities, working out power/funding issues, sharing information and credit. 3.Forging respectful mature partnerships which easily engage in projects together and are shaped by each other so that neither/none is complete alone.

A Framework Toward Positive Health Outcomes for ALL Public spending should be consistent with the best science (includes community-defined evidence); Identify the issues and build on the strengths; Bring diverse partners to the table; Engage in shared, strategic planning involving primary care, schools and communities; Identify interventions that are culturally and linguistically effective and implementation strategies; Develop metrics and outcomes that matter to individuals, populations and policy makers Evaluate the effort and use the data to continuously improve the strategies; Invest in prevention and early intervention in addition to health services.
