Community-Engaged Research: A Resource Manual for Community-Based Organizations
The Community Engagement Program prepared this manual to inform community-based organizations and agencies about the nuts and bolts of developing such research collaborations. We have included resources to facilitate this work and address some of the barriers to collaboration. The overall aim of this document is to orient community-based organizations seeking to do research built on research partnerships with UCSF investigators. This manual is designed to inform, facilitate and support such partnerships so research can meet the needs of agencies, collaborative partners and participants. An online companion manual is available for UCSF investigators who would like to explore research partnerships with community-based organizations. While this manual refers to specific UCSF resources and projects, we hope the information it provides is generalizable to other institutions and can be a resource for agencies and organizations across the U.S.
