Developing a Community Engaged Research Agenda
This webinar will describe how the Morehouse School of Medicine Prevention Research Center’s research and prevention initiatives are implemented in direct response to priorities identified through a community-based, participatory research-driven needs and assets assessment. Led by a community-majority coalition board, the assessment coupled city and state secondary data with primary survey data collected by and from community residents. The assessment informed and established a data-driven community-engaged research agenda, policy, systems, environmental change approaches, community-led grants and job creation leveraging neighborhood contexts and strengths.
