“…Where federal funding is sparse, there may be opportunities for researchers to work in collaboration with state agencies by responding to requests for applications and proposals. By responding to state needs, academic-practitioner partnerships may form at the state level, which may help to improve the state's ability to use data-driven decision making (Gooden, Graham, & Martin, 2014). Moreover, there may be training gaps for researchers seeking to utilize any of these designs, but especially hybrid designs given the emergence of implementation science as a field (Bauer, Damschroder, Hagedorn, Smith, & Kilbourne, 2015).…”

A public health emergency exists in the United States as a result of rising overdose deaths related to Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). With the rise of OUD has also come an increase in the number of children exposed to parents who suffer from an OUD. There is a pressing need for parenting interventions for individuals with OUD to provide safe environments for the children being reared in the face of this epidemic. Research on parenting with an OUD is sparse, but it is impractical to move linearly from basic research to program development and implementation given the urgent need for intervention-a trajectory that prior research has established takes approximately 17 years. We have created an outline of strategies that can be used to accelerate the pace of science so that parenting practices are more immediately improved for this population. First, we summarize what is already known about OUD and parenting to characterize mechanisms that existing interventions have targeted and optimal settings for the wide dissemination of implementable interventions. Next, we identify existing interventions that either specifically target parents with OUD or mechanisms specific to parents with OUD. We describe four different approaches for accelerating the pace of science to improve the lives of parents with OUD and their children. By doing so, we hope to provide a roadmap for future researchers and practitioners to deliver more timely evidence-based interventions to address the additional burden placed on families and communities due to the rise in OUD in the United States.

Effective academic–practitioner collaboration on gender research in federal law enforcement: the value of a coproduction process

Coproduction is the latest and most exhaustive model of academic–practitioner collaboration to engage public administration scholarship. Coproduction centers on the production of research as an interactive process where academics and practitioners collaborate across all phases of a research project. This article contributes to the literature by presenting a critical and reflective examination of a personal journey in coproduction, with a well-known federal law enforcement agency, and offers three recommendations for the academic community to effectively tackle their own coproduction efforts. The benefits and challenges of this partnership are presented, emphasizing a less participatory form of coproduction to recognize workplace issues and solutions. The topic of coproduction is relevant in today’s literature for highlighting academic–practitioner collaboration as a tool to advance knowledge. Points for practitioners • Successful academic–practitioner collaborations require three elements: a “champion” in the practitioner community to advance the coproduction partnership; tenured stakeholders; and compromise amid the two communities to advance knowledge. • A less participatory form of coproduction can be equally effective to highlight workplace issues and solutions. • Joint problem solving with academics is essential for understanding the under-representation of women in federal law enforcement.

Theory–Practice Exchange in Local Government Management: Perspectives of Practitioners and Scholars

The connection of theory to practice in public administration represents a critical transfer of information between scholarship and application. This important relationship establishes a basis of exchange among those engaged in the field, a bond that may be most magnified and accessible at the local levels of government. This study examines the perspectives of practitioners and scholars toward improving the theory-practice exchange in local government management through a series of focus group interviews held at the International City/County Management Association (ICMA) annual conference over 4 years. The findings suggest that the scholar and practitioner communities agree on several approaches and principles that may contribute to enhancing the theory-practice exchange within the themes of research transaction, collaboration, and professionalism. These themes offer mutual contexts for theory-practice interactions, which may help to inform institutional integration and best practice models, and facilitate a functional coexistence of interdependence and improved exchangeability in local government management.
