Key features included in each module

• Researcher Self-Reflections: delivered as quotes gleaned from real-world researchers reflecting on    experiences with community-based participatory research. These statements provide key insights into    changes in thinking, adjustments to prior assumptions about self or others, and other ways in which    these researchers have adjusted their process to respectfully join with community partners.

• Video Reflections: brief video vignettes from researchers and community members designed to    provide course users with comments, opinions, and experiences with CBPR.

• Case Studies: based on real-world examples of CBPR projects.

• Glossary: includes terms that are highlighted the first time they appear in each module and links to    glossary definitions. A full glossary is also included with the course.

• References: citations for specific content as well as additional citations describing published articles    on successful as well as unsuccessful CBPR projects.

Key features of Community Outreach Kit

• Community Brochure: designed to provide community members with basic information about    CBPR (e.g., can be used at the first community meeting, during discussions with community leaders,    as a guide for local research partners who will assist in a project.).

• CBPR Slide Presentation: corresponds to the Community Brochure and was designed for researcher    use during small and large group meetings, or for one-on-one discussions.

• Facilitator Guide: intended to assist researchers in conducting initial community meetings. The    Facilitator Guide contains general group facilitation tips, including slide-by-slide commentary that is    coordinated with the CBPR slide presentation, and background information on basic CBPR concepts.

• Newspaper ad template: for study recruitment or announcement purposes.

• Stationery: designed for multiple uses (e.g., letters, press releases, additional handouts).

• Community Resources List: related to mental health and research, for use by both community    members and researchers.

• Researcher Guide: handy, concise checklist of salient topics related to successful CBPR (e.g.,    relationship-building, conflict resolution, and self-reflection strategies).

Key features of Online Community

• Peer Communication: connects CBPR researchers for support and networking.
