| Conference |
CCPH conferences are noted for their emphasis on inclusion, experiential learning and subsequent action. Outcomes of past CCPH conferences have included those at national and international levels, such as principles of good practice and policy recommendations, and those at community levels, including new connections, new ways of thinking, and relationships between communities and campuses that come closer to the principle-centered partnerships we are striving to achieve. If you are not a CCPH member and want to receive notices about future CCPH conferences, including the call for conference proposals, sign up today for CCPH's monthly E-News.

| Service-Learning Institutes | National experts in service-learning, health professions faculty who have incorporated community service into their courses and community leaders who have developed service-learning partnerships with health professions schools will share program models and reflect with institute participants on the integration of community service, scholarship and teaching. |
| CCPH Consultancy Network - Training & Technical Assistance |
The CCPH Consultancy Network provides
customized training and technical assistance that builds the capacity
of communities and higher educational institutions to engage each other
as authentic partners. The
CCPH Consultancy Network serves individual organizations, university
systems, associations and grantee networks, among others. We work with
you throughout the entire process to select the best consultants who
can provide assistance on-site or by telephone over any desired length
of time. CCPH consultants are "real-life practitioners" and skilled
facilitators with expertise in service-learning, community-based
participatory research, partnership development, institutional change
and other pertinent content areas. Consultancy Network services are available on a fee-for-service basis. Let us know how we can assist you in meeting your goals. For more information, please email info@ccph.info. To read more about CCPH Technical Assistance Resources click here. |
| Annual Awards |
The Community-Campus Partnerships for Health Annual Award recognizes exemplary partnerships between communities and higher educational institutions that build on each other's strengths to improve higher education, civic engagement, and the overall health of communities. The award recognizes community-campus partnerships that reflect the CCPH principles.
|
| Community-Based Participatory Research & Research Ethics |
Institutional Review Boards were designed to protect the interests of individuals, but what about the interests of communities? Our Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) & Research Ethics Program seeks to address this issue through training, technical resources, and open dialogues between communities, academics, research ethics review boards, funders and other key stakeholders. From January through June 2007, CCPH and Tuskegee University's Bioethics Center hosted a 6-part educational conference call series on Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) and Research Ethics, which was intended to increase understanding of the role of IRBs and other mechanisms for assuring that human subjects research is ethical and appropriate - both at individual and community levels. CCPH has established a Listserv was developed on CBPR
& Research Ethics to further the dialogue on these issues, as well
as a Workgroup to develop
practical training materials for IRBs on how to review community-based
participatory research protocols.
|
| Community Partner Peer Mentoring & Advocacy |
Partnerships between communities and higher educational institutions as a strategy for social change are gaining recognition and momentum. We believe that if true partnerships are to be achieved, community partners must harness their own experiences, lessons learned, and collective wisdom into a national, organized effort. In April 2006, CCPH convened community
partners with years of experience in community-higher education
partnerships for a Community Partner Summit
held at the Wingspread Conference Center in Racine, WI. In December 2011, CCPH and the Center for Community Health Education Research and Service co-sponsored Achieving the Promise of Community-Engaged Health Disparities Research: A National Community Partner Forum in Boston, MA. In March 2012, a Regional Community Partner Forum was held in New York City. The Community Partner Listserv helps build the capacity of community partners through information-sharing, collaborative problem-solving and advocacy.

| Rewarding
Community-Engaged Scholarship at Canadian Universities |
The
College of Social and Applied Human Sciences at the University of
Guelph and Community-Campus Partnerships for Health are spearheading a
national initiative that aims to change university policies and
practices to better develop and reward community-engaged
scholarship. The initiative, "Rewarding Community-Engaged
Scholarship: Towards the Transformation of University Policies
and Practices" will work with a cohort of Canadian universities that
are committed to advancing CES and eager to collaborate with their
peers in doing so. For more information, visit the initiative website |
| Research and Evaluation Projects | CCPH contributes to our understanding of community-campus partnerships by sponsoring original research, conducting program evaluations, reviewing literature, and collecting and disseminating "best practices." |
| On the Horizon | CCPH is a dynamic organization. We are continuously working to expand our capacity and provide you with more programs and services. Our goal is to provide you with the knowledge, skills and strategies you need to create and sustain successful community-campus partnerships. If you have ideas for possible CCPH programs or projects, please email us. |
