Health Companion Project: A community-based participatory research model for health promotion in Iran

“…Participatory research efforts and community partnership approaches, such as the one described here and in other studies, are grounded in the recognition that all partners contribute to the understanding and resources that influence the effectiveness of the interventions and that they are committed to processes that facilitate their contributions (Brown & Tandon, 1983; Hall, 1992; Perkins, Florin, Rich, Wandersman, & Chavis, 1996; Schulz et al., 2002; Singer, 1993; Stoecker & Beckwith, 1992).…”

Addressing Social Determinants of Health through Community-Based Participatory Research: The East Side Village Health Worker Partnership

“…Participatory action research efforts and community partnership approaches, such as the one described here, are grounded in the recognition that all partners contribute understanding and resources that influence the effectiveness of the interventions developed and are committed to processes that facilitate those contributions. 22,25,[26][27][28][56][57][58] As the ESVHWP began establishing priorities for interventions, an agreed-upon priority was to understand and, where appropriate, build on or extend community members' existing strategies to reduce stressors and to strengthen protective factors that might reduce the impact of those stressors on health. Below, we present results from the qualitative analysis of the in-depth interviews that illuminate such existing community strategies.…”

Factors associated with perceived ease of access to syringes in Appalachian North Carolina

“…51 Given the stigmatized nature of these topics and the limitations of quantitative research for exploring complex and stigmatized topics, future research to examine individuals' experiences purchasing syringes at pharmacies and perceived ease of access to sterile supplies is warranted and may benefit from a qualitative approach. [78][79][80][81][82] The current study found that friends and acquaintances were the third most common source of syringes. This finding is similar to a study of urban PWID in San Francisco, which found that friends were the second most common source of syringes.…”

“…For example, a study conducted in West Virginia with a similar population identified difficulty with purchasing syringes from a pharmacy as one of the greatest barriers to syringe access 51 . Given the stigmatized nature of these topics and the limitations of quantitative research for exploring complex and stigmatized topics, future research to examine individuals’ experiences purchasing syringes at pharmacies and perceived ease of access to sterile supplies is warranted and may benefit from a qualitative approach 78–82 …”
