SOURCE Authors’ analysis of meeting minutes, attendance records, and agendas from the first year of the partnership project.
Attendees included only research partnership team members. Several of the individualized meetings included a number of additional staff members at the clinic or site location of the community stakeholder (CS).
Cross-trainings included intentional activities to share personal or professional expertise between partners (for example, academic researchers or community-based participatory research consultant sharing research expertise or training with nonresearcher CSs, or CSs sharing professional or personal experiences with the research team leadership and staff).
