Abstract

The Communities Organizing to Promote Equity (COPE) Project was implemented in 20 counties across Kansas to build capacity to address health equity by forming local health equity action teams (LHEATS), hiring and training community health workers, facilitating state-wide learning collaboratives, and tailoring communication strategies. We conducted interviews and focus groups with project stakeholders who identified pragmatic recommendations related to LHEAT formation and leadership, establishing trust, nurturing autonomy, and optimizing impact. Insights can improve future community-based health equity efforts. (Am J Public Health. 2024;114(S7):S570-S574. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307802).

地方健康公平行动小组（LHEATS）是堪萨斯州社区组织促进公平（COPE）项目的一种新颖的新兴做法。

社区组织起来促进公平（COPE）项目在堪萨斯州的 20 个县实施，通过组建地方健康公平行动小组（LHEATS）、聘用和培训社区健康工作者、促进全州范围内的学习合作以及调整沟通策略来提高解决健康公平问题的能力。我们对项目利益相关者进行了访谈和焦点小组讨论，他们提出了与地方健康公平行动小组的组建和领导、建立信任、培养自主性和优化影响相关的务实建议。这些见解可以改善未来基于社区的健康公平工作。(Am J Public Health.https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307802 ）。
