The CHURCH project is a community-partnered participatory research project that seeks to promote the mental well-being of African American populations by developing, implementing, and evaluating a mental health training curriculum for faith leaders in Black churches. Participatory research, in which community stakeholders collaborate with researchers as equal partners to address problems impacting marginalized communities, has recently become more popular in academia. Training is necessary to equip community partners with the skills and knowledge required for full research participation. Community partners frequently encounter ethical issues in participatory research, but limited training resources are available to proactively prevent and address such issues. The CPRET was developed through a collaboration between the Clinical and Translational Science Institute and the Human Research Protection Office and Community Research Advisory Board at the University of Pittsburgh. It surveys research processes and core research ethics principles, and it stimulates discussion regarding best practices by engaging participants in scenario-based exercises in which they identify ethical and unethical research. By describing how we utilized the CPRET in the CHURCH project and presenting a summary of participant feedback, we aim to build resources for community-engaged scholars seeking to engage community members in ethical research.","PeriodicalId":73680,"journal":{"name":"Journal of community engagement and scholarship","volume":"53 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140422036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interprofessional collaborative practice is increasingly recognized as a means of best practice in the field of social work. Growing in momentum, interprofessional collaboration fosters an environment for a variety of professionals to learn from one another and gain greater insight, technique, and perspective on the identified objective. This article presents a case study of the experiences of faculty and graduate students at the University of Oklahoma in the respective fields of social work and regional and city planning as they partnered with the Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency to conduct a mixed-methods evaluation of housing resources, which included online surveys, focus groups with service providers, community stakeholders, and persons with lived experience of homelessness and/or housing instability. The findings indicate several key themes of the interprofessional collaboration between social work and regional and city planning: 1) reward of partnership, 2) city structures of homelessness, and 3) the multi-contextual factors impacting homelessness. The results suggest that by working with differing professions, faculty and students gained greater experience and opportunity, expanding their scope on modalities, assessment methodologies, analyzation techniques, and additional expertise on large-scale community intervention tactics. These findings have implications for future interprofessional partnerships that could foster dynamic community-level interventions and improvements.","PeriodicalId":73680,"journal":{"name":"Journal of community engagement and scholarship","volume":"57 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139447237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Universities can deploy their infrastructure and human capital to better support local public schools, better preparing the next generation of college students for success in higher education and access to STEM-related careers. This article describes a university-public school partnership between the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) and Paul Robeson High School designed to accelerate the science learning of Paul Robeson High School students by having Penn college students teach hands-on lab activities on the college campus. Here, the partnership is described from the perspective of the school principal and school-based teacher leader for science and math at Paul Robeson High School. We discuss results from recent state standardized exams suggesting that these activities improve science knowledge and understanding for the high school students. A key ingredient for the improved science skills may be the broad social aspects of feeling included in the university setting.","PeriodicalId":73680,"journal":{"name":"Journal of community engagement and scholarship","volume":"36 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139452329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension is higher than average in the Perry County population. The Cardiovascular Risk Reduction Clinic, a collaboration between Samford University McWhorter School of Pharmacy, Sowing Seeds of Hope, and the Perry County Health Department, partnered with the Perry County Department of Transportation (DOT) to offer DOT employees, mostly African American men, health screenings and education delivered at times and locations convenient to their work schedules. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the impact of a community partnership with pharmacist-led health interventions on modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in participants lacking access to other community health initiatives due to work obligations. This study was a retrospective chart review evaluating changes in blood pressure and body mass index (BMI). Participants included DOT employees 18 years of age and older who participated in at least two health screenings 12 weeks apart. Over the course of the intervention, the average systolic blood pressure decreased by 6 mmHg, and the average diastolic blood pressure decreased by 4 mmHg. The baseline BMI average of 35.1 kg/m2 had dropped to 34.5 kg/m2 at 12 weeks. Although modest, the reductions in blood pressure and BMI indicate a potential for cardiovascular disease risk reduction. Lessons learned from this pilot project can inform the initiation of similar programs intended to decrease cardiovascular risk. Pharmacist-led interventions combined with community support can lead to positive cardiovascular results among rural communities.","PeriodicalId":73680,"journal":{"name":"Journal of community engagement and scholarship","volume":"12 1-4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139230920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, racial and ethnic minority populations are often underrepresented in traditional survey research. In a survey of the social and economic impacts of COVID-19 in a local area, we developed three distinct academic-community partnerships. We report these partnerships with particular focus on the partnership that promoted the inclusion of racially and ethnically minoritized multicultural populations in the survey. We describe each stage of the partnership, including survey design, translation, outreach and recruitment, results, and dissemination of results, and share the lessons learned, both in terms of academic-community partnerships and in surveying multicultural populations. Our lessons learned consist of four main themes: Outreach and recruitment is more labor-intensive with multicultural populations; the respondents in the targeted sample for this study differed from the general population in how they experienced the effects of COVID-19; researchers must be flexible and plan for more time and expenses; and academic-community partnerships are a valuable model for including traditionally hard-to-reach populations in research. A comparison of our survey reach to that of its corresponding representative survey affirms that our process was effective in recruiting a population that differed from the representative sample, both in terms of demographics and the severity of the pandemic’s impact at the household level. Thus, additional efforts to reach multicultural and underrepresented populations are warranted, especially during a pandemic, and academic-community partnerships combine multiple areas of expertise to productively engage such populations.","PeriodicalId":73680,"journal":{"name":"Journal of community engagement and scholarship","volume":"13 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139250620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To assess the impact of Future MEDIC on students’ knowledge and interest in healthcare careers, we administered pre- and post-surveys, informal exit interviews, and participation prizes. Survey responses were analyzed with a Mann Whitney U test for significance. There was a significant increase (p = 0.01) from pre- to post-survey about “I enjoy learning about how the body works.” Yet there was also a significant decrease (p = 0.03) from pre- to post-survey about “In the future, I am interested in working in healthcare or medicine.” Despite enjoying the activities and content of the Future MEDIC program, students did not have an increased interest in entering the healthcare field.
