This picture shows how homeowners take pride in their home and street. This street is
revitalized with new curbs, new sidewalks, and new paved streets. It brings beauty to homes
and community. It shows that neighbors communicate with each other. It shows that this
is a safe block.-Block Club

Thinking in Terms of Systems“A system…refers to the particular
configuration of all relevant entities, resources, and processes that together adequately characterize the problem space under study.”
“A system is defined by the boundaries that stakeholders use to determine which acts/observations are relevant for their inquiry as well as the interpretations/judgments that they use to guide decisions or actions (Urlich, 2002).”

Share Responsibility of Intervention Development & Dissemination
by Seeking to Learn from Practitioners … Capacity to implement interventions and research Values & expertise
– Pro-innovation bias of scientists can ignore/undermine existing “indigenous” practices
Complexity of their decision-making to adopt and implement innovation
Small theory – study processes in specific local programs, and study how to insert powerful ideas
into existing structures

communities: Overcoming difficulties in dissemination of prevention and promotion efforts. AJ Community Psychology, 35 (3-4), 169-183.

I. Needs Assessment -Mental Health Promotion Task Force
• Vision - Neutral community table
Convened by FLHSA (under contract with UR) in partnership with University of Rochester’s Department of Psychiatry & Monroe County Office of Mental Health’s ACCESS.
Designed six sessions: needs assessment and prioritization
• Goal - Design, test & implement collaborative MHP interventions
• Top issue - Normalization of violence among families with school-aged children
• Implementation - NIMH-funded pilot project (PI: White) from a P20 Center MH071897 (PI: Caine), 2009-10
• Other Projects - Community inventory of strengths-enhancing or prevention-oriented formal approaches
• Community views of the University: trust needs to be earned

II. Specify Change Objectives and Implementation Agents
Natural HelpersIndividuals, in our neighborhoods, who residents
naturally turn to, or seek out in difficult times because of his or her concern, interest and innate understanding (Patterson & Memmott, 1992, p.22).
Can break cycles of violence by changing norms? Strengthen mental wellness?

III. Form “Writing Group” - Decide Approach, Methods & Broad Ethical Considerations
Sample: Inclusion criteria RSRB approved: Discuss protection, risks and benefits at both
individual and community level Sources of referrals: CBOs/FBOs and community members Sources of data: Interviews, focus groups, observations
(PhotoVoice), embedded in CBPR processes Qualitative Descriptive Analyses of focus groups (3), interviews
(18), and field notes that examined natural helping, violence normalization, mental wellness and the learning collaborative
Community researchers (training; Photo Voice) Be iterative: snowball, incorporate expertise of new partners
(cultural congruence); re-analyze pilot data with systems science methods later if merited

Common Problems in How Communities Experience Research
Irrelevant– not responding to community concerns– poor methodology; investigators lack the right expertise
Exploitive– Not sharing data/findings– “Over-researched” & not partners in the process. Need
structure and process for inclusion and knowledge of academic research enterprise,
– Minimal benefit (not building their research capacity and infrastructure, little allocation of resources and fiscal decision-making)
Reinforcing past trauma– historic power and control differentials– activate culturally sensitive topics (e.g., ‘The Crescent’)
![Page 12: 1 Preparing to Work With Systems and Stakeholders in SBIR Ann Marie White, Ed.D. Assistant Professor University of Rochester Medical Center July 2012 This](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649eb75503460f94bc0c98/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Partnership Processes to Navigate, Iteratively as Partners Expand
Understand Context– Trust & Commitment (historical, mission, roles/strengths)– Power & Resource Sharing– Diverse Membership & Informant Selection
Get started and Maintain Reciprocal Relationship– Establish shared research priorities & address differences– Co-learning
Capacity Build among Partners
Apply Common Language in Writing and Review
Sustain Partnerships, Program Impacts & Partners– Ongoing assessments, improvements, share findings, celebrate

IV. Co-Develop Intervention & Approach Aims: Is it Feasible and Acceptable to…?1. Identify neighborhood natural helpers
2. Convene natural helpers to create and implement their own learning collaborative (NHLC) to share expertise around addressing violence and mental wellness
3. Develop & conduct ecologically valid methods to
a) identify, describe and pass on natural helping
b) assess the NHLC potential for stated goals
c) can be owned by members and reinforcing natural helping values
4. Coalesce a collaborative research team
![Page 15: 1 Preparing to Work With Systems and Stakeholders in SBIR Ann Marie White, Ed.D. Assistant Professor University of Rochester Medical Center July 2012 This](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649eb75503460f94bc0c98/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Steps to Engage Stakeholders: Feasible without “Boiling the Ocean”
Aim 1. Open call: agencies/city sectors (June ‘09)- 4 CBO/FBOs nominate NHCs for two focus groups- Develop tool by reviewing preliminary findings
Aim 2. Use tools to nominate NH- Interview nominees; member check & select topics- 8 NHLC sessions; final focus group
Aim 3. Community develops “products” to sustain; member check findings (key messages, key
components of sessions) (July ‘10)- Focus group & Logic model development (July-Aug ‘11)- Decision to act as a network (versus a group) (Sept. ‘11)

Essential Elements of CBPRCommunity-based participatory research (CBPR) is a
collaborative research approach that is designed to ensure and establish structures for participation by communities affected by the issue being studied, representatives of organizations, and researchers in all aspects of the research process to improve health and wellbeing through taking action, including social change.
To expand this definition, we conclude that CBPR emphasizes (1) co-learning about issues of concern and, within those, the issues that can be studied with CBPR methods and reciprocal transfer of expertise; (2) sharing of decision-making power; and (3) mutual ownership [benefit] of the products and processes of research. The end result is incorporating the knowledge gained with taking action or effecting social change to improve the health and well-being of community members.

Who partner with, specifically? Working professionals Community leaders Community members Persons affected
A stakeholder is anyone who has a stake in what happens. The term forces us to think about who will be affected by any project, who controls the information, skills and money needed, who may help and who may hinder. - D. Wilcox (1994). The Guide to Effective Participation. Brighton: Delta Press.

Community defined via culture
An integrated pattern of human behavior that includes thoughts, communications, languages, practices, beliefs, values, customs, courtesies, rituals, manners of interacting, roles, relationships and expected behaviors of a racial, ethnic, religious, social or political group; the ability to transmit the above to succeeding generations; is dynamic in nature. (National Center for Cultural Competence, 2006)

Recommendations:Be Prepared to Present Partnerships
How is community defined? MembershipHow is collaboration maintained? Individual/Partnership What “best practice” of community engagement,
including characteristics of your investigator-community partnership, do you pass on? Capacities? Power and conflict resolution? Draw your partnership model.
What are essential elements of CBPR implementation?Outcomes? Indicators of effectiveness? Key Functions?
Partnership evaluation (process and outcomes) plans? Specific aims, budget, evaluation plan (methods/measures, personnel, stakeholder involvement, theory, etc.
