Working through bound liberation: a community engagement framework for health partnerships
Background:
A community-academic partnership was developed to implement a community-based participatory research project within Chicago's Englewood community.
Objectives:
We explain how Mental Health Impact Assessment (MHIA) ensures that mental health and health inequities are considered in decision making by using a systematic process that engages populations most likely to be impacted by those decisions.
Methods:
We report on the process of developing an MHIA by engaging community partners to evaluate and predict potential mental health outcomes of an employment policy.
Lessons Learned:
We describe the principle of working through bound liberation, resulting in a bidirectional engagement between academics and community partners. We highlight lessons and challenges of our engagement process.
Conclusions:
Effectively joining in solidarity with community partners was critical for project success, but community capacity needs to be increased to support future projects.
