From Outreach to Shared Leadership: Expanding Collaborations with Young Adults with Lived Experiences
Partner program announcement – We are pleased to share this opportunity.
Community engaged research (CER) is a collaborative approach between researchers and individuals with lived expertise, whose often under-recognized voices are centered in conducting research, decision-making, and disseminating evidence-based knowledge and meaningful resources. This webinar highlights how the Center for Community Inclusion and Reflective Collaboration (The CIRC Center) has successfully empowered community partners with lived expertise of mental health conditions—from the Young Adult Advisory Board (YAB)—to co-produce research and dissemination projects. We will describe our experiences and share reflections on over a year of these established roles from the perspective of our community partners. Attendees will gain an understanding of how our community partners’ contributions have accelerated CIRC Center research and knowledge translation projects to date and how these projects have impacted our community partners by fostering professional development and a sense of community. Presenters: Davy Yue, Joshua Calarino and Tracy Neville
