  7. As we have evolved our mission has become more ambitious… “PRIME-US is an eco-system for creating health equity”* * Sofia Noori, MPH (final year PRIME-US student, personal communication, 10/16)

  8. Health Equity: Everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. This requires removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, and their consequences, including powerlessness and lack of access to good jobs with fair pay, quality education and housing, safe environments, and health care. Health equity means reducing and ultimately eliminating disparities in health and its determinants that adversely affect excluded or marginalized groups.

  17. Community Engagement: Principles and Practices

  18. Principles and Practices  Approach the relationship with humility  Demonstrate commitment  Ensure mutual benefit  Build on strengths  Be clear about roles  Be all in

  19. “ Cultural humility incorporates a lifelong commitment to self-evaluation and critique, to redressing the power imbalances in the physician- patient dynamic, and to developing mutually beneficial and non-paternalistic partnerships with communities on behalf of individuals and defined populations.” Melanie Tervalon, MD Turvalon, M. a. M.-G., Jann (1998). "Cultural Humility vs Cultural Competence: A Critical Distinction in Defining Physician Training Outcomes in Multicultural Education." Journal of Health Care for the Poor and Underserved 9 (2): 117-125.

  20. Cultural Humility ■ Recognize that cultural gaps exist - in communication, timelines, training, information needs and resources, how information is disseminated and used. ■ You have expertise and so does your partner. ■ Ensure academic program and institutional accountability to community partner

  21. Demonstrate Commitment Do your homework- community assessment Introductions - be introduced and make introductions Discuss best forms of communication Be clear on timelines

  22. Communication  Schedule regular check-in times  Are you meeting your deadlines?  Do you need to reexamine goals?  Share where you are at in the process

  23. Ensuring Mutual Benefit  Negotiate roles  Sustainability of partnership  Clearly identify individual goals

  24. Role Clarity  Share facilitation  Document agreed upon tasks  MOU

  25. Reflection  Added component in our community work  Supports cultural humility practice

  26. Take away points:  Approach potential community partners with questions, curiosity and humility  Trust-building is essential to success  Structures support clear roles  Benefit is mutual  Check in along the way - evaluate the process  Reflection is critical for learning

  27. PRIME-US Community Engagement One Time Events  Outreach pipeline programs (1,000-2,000 students/year)  One time health education workshops (community)  One time educational events (UCSF)  Focus Groups, surveys Short Term Service Learning Projects—(months to yr)  Program evaluations  Policy and advocacy (legislative and other)  Youth workshops and extended mentorship work  Focus groups, key informant interviews, surveying

  28. PRIME-US Community Learning... “We learn from the community” “We learn in the community” “We learn about the historical and structural factors that provide context for why there are health disparities” “We learn about communities through a strength and asset based perspective” C apstone (final year) students, 10/16
