The Communities Partner for Better Health in Oregon and Southwest Washington

CBPR Skills-Building Workshops

Northwest Health Foundation

In 2006 NWHF partnered with Community-Campus Partnerships for Health to offer CBPR skills-building workshops in four Oregon cities: Portland, Corvallis, Medford, and LaGrande.

"For community-based organizations serving a diverse client population, the CBPR model of research practice creates a true partnership of equals between participants and researchers. A partnership where participants are treated as respected teachers rather than faceless subjects ... As a participant at the Skill Building Workshop in CBPR in Corvallis on August 15th, I found the sharing of strategies and real life examples by fellow attendees to be as valuable as the formal presentations. Conference participants were given the opportunity to be both learners and teachers - an experiential mirror of the CBPR model."
