For people working to strengthen their communities, the chance to explore shared challenges and access peer support can be transformative.

Community-engaged researchers: To make sure your research reflects the needs and priorities of communities, you should: ✔ Include community members at every stage of research—planning the work, implementing it, evaluating it, and sharing results. ✔ Listen to the people in the community and get to know their needs and priorities before you develop your research project. ✔ Tap into community members’ understanding of local resources, assets, barriers, and facilitators For more helpful tips, check out the full Tips for Inclusive Community-Engaged Research factsheet developed by NIH CEAL's Inclusive Participation Work Group: https://bit.ly/475YXFf #CommunityEngagedResearch #CEnR

Full transparency! In 2016, I became a charter school authorizer without knowing how to improve existing practices. Attending NACSA's Annual Conference in Georgia that year changed everything. Their sessions challenged old practices and sharpened my skills to promote equity and inclusion. Don't miss my chat with Veronica Brooks-Uy, NACSA Vice President, about her work on Diversifying the Profession: Closing the DEI in Authorizing. She's brilliant! #DiversityInclusion #EducationEquity #DEI #CharterSchools #Authorizing #CharterSchoolAuthorizing #HBCU #Authorizers #Podcast
