Our Power session with the team from INSPIRE is up on the website, you can learn from their research process, best practices, and action recommendations what it looks like to make community engagement more authentic and transformational.

Our long-term partnership with Care Ring is rooted in community voice and building relationships that optimize true care for a community - and not just transactional services. This week's article from Ryan Pitkin at The QC Nerve highlights how this work influenced locations and offerings for Care Ring's mobile health clinic - The Bridge - and in turn, more people receiving the healthcare they need. We're so inspired by the way our teammate Helen Hope Kimbrough builds trust in communities by listening and being proximate to the issues neighbors face - including, in this case, what it might take for an individual to access the clinic and making that walk herself. As she says in the article, “I wanted to see what it would be like for a mom to walk with two kids, or for a person who does not speak English or a second language, how would they navigate that?” she explained. “I also wanted to see what type of things would be needed for a person who may be disabled. And so along that walk, I got a chance to kind of embody some of that, because I feel like some of this work people come to with a bias. So how do we pull back all of that so that we can literally look to see the neighborhood — what’s going on, the people, the bus routes, all of those things?” You can read the article here: https://lnkd.in/eAXsEGbd For more about what Next Stage believes about Community Voice, read our recent report, "Inside Out: The Case for Community Voice:" https://lnkd.in/efvfu-4R

✳ New Resource: A Roadmap for Effective Community Engagement in Healthcare ✳ I always say, #communityengagement isn't something you do on the weekend or on 1 special day a year, it's how you do *all* the things. This new report from the INSPIRE collaborative (Camden Coalition, Community Catalyst, The Center to Advance Consumer Partnership, PFCCpartners, and the Institute for Patient- and Family-Centered Care) makes 4 spot-on recs for #healthcare to get this right: ➡ Train healthcare profs who are charged with leading this work ➡ Ensure people with lived experience are in leadership/partnership roles ➡ "Improve organizational-level infrastructure to support high-quality and impactful community engagement" ➡ "Address structural and policy opportunities that could improve the uptake of community engagement" Read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/e3ApbNYa And get involved with the AAMC Center for Health Justice's community engagement efforts by joining our CHARGE collaborative here: https://lnkd.in/gsZnE-yZ #healthequity #healthjustice

At the heart of every thriving community is the promise of healthcare – a fundamental right that binds us together in our most vulnerable moments. Healthcare is the lifeline that ensures our collective well-being and community resilience. But for all the good it does, we must recognize that true healing goes beyond the walls of any clinic or hospital. It lies in the promise of health equity – the belief that everyone, regardless of race, income, or background, deserves access to the same high-quality care. Health equity means ensuring every mother-to-be receives compassionate, culturally competent care. It means every child, no matter where they live, has a fair chance to grow up healthy and strong. We’re all in this together. Achieving health equity is a journey we must take in partnership. ↳ It requires us to tear down barriers preventing many from accessing the care they need. ↳ It calls on us to listen to voices of the underrepresented, to understand their struggles, and to act with urgency and empathy. As we stand together, united by our shared humanity, we, at KC Health Collaborative, urge you to commit to helping us make healthcare the center of our community. Together, we can ensure healthcare allows everyone to feel seen, heard, and valued. Let’s get to work! - Follow KC Health Collaborative to stay up-to-date about our efforts in fostering health equity and community connections in the Kansas City region. #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #HealthCare #KansasCity
