Motto of the North Texas Community Health Collaborative Through community-based participatory research (CBPR) – working with communities rather than merely in communities - we seek to develop replicable models for understanding health and disease determinants/disparities, and supporting mechanisms for promoting healthier life for individuals, families, neighborhoods, and communities. A community is like a ship, everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm. Henrik Ibsen www.dfwhcfoundation.org
