    Abstract Digital storytelling (DST) interventions may be one way to address disparities in cancer screening experienced by the Hispanic/Latino population. Digital stories are short, first-person narratives that include voice-over narration and images. With storytellers' permission, researchers can screen digital stories as a health intervention. Digital stories can inspire viewers to adopt or change their behavior, such as completing cancer screening. Rochester Healthy Community Partnership (a 20-year community-based participatory research partnership) together with eight Hispanic/Latino, Spanish speaking cancer survivors, co-survivors, or recently screened individuals, developed digital stories about breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening. Here, we describe our qualitative evaluation of the DST workshop. To understand what the storytellers thought viewers would find relatable in their digital stories, we applied Narrative Theory. We also assessed workshop successes and opportunities for improvement. We used the constant comparative method for data analysis. We learned that the storytellers anticipated their stories would be engaging and that viewers would connect with Hispanic/Latino cultural values. During the workshop, the storytellers felt like they were making an important contribution. The storytellers highlighted specific opportunities for improvement including sharing the stories more quickly after the workshop. Future research is needed to test whether this intervention follows the Narrative Theory causal pathway by persuading viewers to complete recommended cancer screenings.

    Abstract Background: Im/migrants (immigrants and migrants, including refugees, asylum seekers, and individuals without legal documentation) experience unique assets and needs in relation to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is one way to engage im/migrant communities. Rochester Healthy Community Partnership (RHCP) is a CBPR partnership in Rochester, Minnesota. RHCP partners noted that credible COVID-19 information was not available to their communities. In response, RHCP formed a COVID-19 Task Force and adapted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication (CERC) framework to create an intervention that prioritized im/migrant groups experiencing health disparities. In the CERC intervention, communication leaders delivered COVID-19 health messages to their social networks and documented related concerns. RHCP relayed these concerns to regional leaders to ensure that im/migrant experiences were included in decision making. Once vaccines were available, RHCP continued to deploy the CERC intervention to promote vaccination equity. The aims of this paper are to (1) describe the implementation of a bidirectional CERC intervention for vaccination equity, and (2) describe a community-engaged and community-based vaccine clinic intervention.
    Methods: First, we surveyed participants (n = 37) to assess COVID-19 experiences, acceptability of the CERC intervention, and motivation to receive a COVID-19 vaccination. Second, we collaborated with community partners to hold vaccine clinics. We report descriptive statistics from each intervention.
    Results: When asked about the acceptability of the CERC intervention for vaccine equity, most participants either reported that they 'really liked it' or 'thought it was just ok'. Most participants stated that they would recommend the program to family or friends who have not yet received the COVID-19 vaccine. Almost all participants reported that they felt 'much more' or 'somewhat more' motivated to receive a COVID-19 vaccine after the intervention. We administered 1158 vaccines at the vaccination clinics.
    Conclusions: We found that participants viewed the CERC intervention for vaccination equity as an acceptable way to disseminate COVID-19-related information. Nearly all participants reported that the intervention convinced them to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. In our experience, community-engaged and community-based clinics are a successful way to administer vaccines to im/migrant communities during a pandemic.

    Abstract Community-engaged research partnerships promote health equity through incorporation of regional contexts to inform partnership dynamics that shape research and interventions that reflect community voice and priorities. Long-term partnerships build trusted relationships and promote capacity building among community and academic partners, but there are many structural barriers to sustaining long-term partnerships. Here we describe lessons learned from sustaining Rochester Healthy Community Partnership (RHCP), an 18-year community-based participatory research (CBPR) partnership in Southeast Minnesota. RHCP collaborates with immigrant and refugee populations to co-create interventions that promote health equity for community health priorities. Challenges to sustainability include a tension between project-based funding and the needs of long-term community-based research infrastructure. These challenges can be met with a focus on shared CBPR principles, operating norms, partnership dynamics, and governance. RHCP began in 2004 through identification of a community health priority, defining the community, and establishment of CBPR principles. It grew through identification of broader community health priorities, capacity building for community and academic partners, and integration of diverse learners. We describe the capacity for RHCP to respond to new societal contexts, the importance of partnership dynamics as a barometer for partnership health, and lessons learned about sustainability of the CBPR partnership.

    Abstract Background: Immigrants to the United States face structural barriers that contribute to rising cardiovascular risk factors and obesity after immigration. This manuscript describes the development of the Healthy Immigrant Community protocol and baseline measures for a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial to test the effectiveness of a social network intervention for cardiovascular risk reduction among two immigrant populations.
    Methods: We developed a social network-informed, community-based, participatory research-derived health promotion intervention with Hispanic and Somali immigrant communities in Minnesota consisting of mentoring, educational and motivational sessions, group activities, and a community toolkit for healthy weight loss delivered by culturally concordant health promoters (HPs) to their social networks. Using a stepped wedge cluster randomized design, social network-based groups were randomly assigned to receive the intervention either immediately or after a delay of one year. Outcomes, measured at baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months, were derived from the American Heart Association's "Life's Simple 7": BMI and waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, physical activity level, and dietary quality.
    Results: A total of 51 HPs were enrolled and randomized (29 Hispanic; 22 Somali). There were 475 participants enrolled in the study, representing a mean social network group size of 8 (range, 5-12). The mean BMI of the sample (32.2) was in the "obese" range.
    Conclusion: Processes and products from this Healthy Immigrant Community protocol are relevant to other communities seeking to reduce cardiovascular risk factors and negative health behaviors among immigrant populations by leveraging the influence of their social networks.

    Abstract Background: Dissemination of research findings to participants and communities, particularly among traditionally marginalized groups, is a systemic challenge. In community-based participatory research (CBPR), long-term partnerships may foster a link between recruitment to research studies, dissemination of results, and recruitment to future studies.
    Objectives: To analyze the recruitment to dissemination continuum of a CBPR study and its potential impact on partnership processes and future research.
    Methods: We conducted a qualitative study with four focus groups with community members and academic partners who participated in the recruitment and the dissemination of research findings from a study of Hispanic and Somali social networks in Rochester, Minnesota. Thematic analysis and coding of focus group transcripts was conducted by investigators. The CBPR conceptual model for this partnership guided the analysis.
    Results: Trust, relationship building, and capacity building were key features for successful participant recruitment and research dissemination strategies. Strategies, resources, and relationships used or developed during the recruitment phase of research were directly applied to planning a dissemination event. Participants and members of their communities said they were more likely to participate in future research studies as a result of attending a dissemination event.
    Conclusions: This study demonstrated the ways in which recruitment of marginalized populations to research studies and dissemination of study results can manifest as a continuum. This continuum is nurtured by trust, longitudinal relationships, and robust partnership dynamics. These factors fit well within an existing CBPR conceptual model.

    Abstract Purpose: To examine the feasibility and acceptability of a social network weight loss intervention delivered by lay health promoters (HPs) to immigrant populations.
    Design: Single-arm, non-randomized, pilot study of a social network weight loss intervention developed by a community-based participatory research partnership and delivered by HPs.
    Setting: Community-based setting in Southeastern Minnesota, United States.
    Sample: Somali and Hispanic immigrants to the United States: 4 social networks of adults (2 Hispanic and 2 Somali) with 39 network participants.
    Intervention: Twelve-week behavioral weight loss intervention delivered by HPs (4 weeks in-person and then 8 weeks virtual).
    Measures: Feasibility was assessed by recruitment and retention rates. Acceptability was assessed by surveys and focus groups with HPs and participants. Behavioral measures included servings of fruits and vegetables, drinking soda, and physical activity. Physiologic measures included weight, blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides.
    Analysis: Paired t-tests of pre- to post-intervention changes at the end of 12 weeks of treatment.
    Results: Recruitment was feasible and post-intervention was 100%. Participants highly rated the intervention on satisfaction, motivation, and confidence to eat a healthy diet, be physically active, and lose weight. Participants were motivated by group social support and cohesion of their social networks. On average, participants lost weight (91.6 ± 15.9 to 89.7 ± 16.6 kg, P < .0001), lowered their systolic blood pressure (133.9±16.9 to 127.2 ± 15.8 mm Hg; P < .001), lowered their diastolic blood pressure (81 ± 9.5 to 75.8 ± 9.6 mm Hg; P < .0001), had more servings of vegetables per day (1.9 ± 1.2 to 2.6 ± 1.4; P < .001), and increased their physical activity (2690 ± 3231 to 6595 ± 7322 MET-minutes per week; P = .02).
    Conclusion: This pilot study of 2 immigrant communities who participated in a peer-led weight loss social network intervention delivered during the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated high feasibility and acceptability. Participants lost weight, improved their health status, and improved their health behaviors.

    Abstract Objectives: This study was conducted to assess an intervention that was created by a community-academic partnership to address COVID-19 health inequities. We evaluated a community-engaged bidirectional pandemic crisis and emergency risk communication (CERC) framework with immigrant and refugee populations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: A 17-year community-engaged research partnership adopted a CERC framework in March 2020 to address COVID-19 prevention, testing, and socioeconomic impacts with immigrant and refugee groups in southeast Minnesota. The partnership used bidirectional communication between communication leaders and their social networks to refine messages, leverage resources, and advise policy makers. We conducted a mixed-methods evaluation for intervention acceptability, feasibility, reach, adaptation, and sustainability through multisource data, including email communications, work group notes, semistructured interviews, and focus groups.
    Results: The intervention reached at least 39 000 people in 9 months. It was implemented as intended and perceived efficacy was high. Frequent communication between community and academic partners allowed the team to respond rapidly to concerns and facilitated connection of community members to resources. Framework implementation also led to systems and policy changes to meet the needs of immigrant and refugee populations.
    Conclusions: Community-engaged CERC is feasible and sustainable and can reduce COVID-19 disparities through shared creation and dissemination of public health messages, enhanced connection to existing resources, and incorporation of community perspectives in regional pandemic mitigation policies.

    Abstract Todo instrumento de recolección de datos debe ser válido y confiable para que enfermería intervenga efectivamente y le permita proponer políticas de salud en búsqueda de reducir las cifras de morbimortalidad materna y perinatal. El objetivo general de la investigación fue determinar la validez y confiabilidad del cuestionario “Prácticas de cuidado que realizan consigo mismas las mujeres en el posparto”. Es una investigación metodológica. La validez de contenido mediante la prueba de expertos reportó un puntaje de 0,88, la validez facial con 10 expertas y 10 mujeres en el posparto evidenció consenso de acuerdos en relación con la claridad y comprensión del cuestionario. Se realizó prueba piloto para determinar posibles ajustes. Participaron 176 mujeres lactantes en el posparto de diferentes estratos socioeconómicos, residentes en Bogotá, a quienes se les aplicó, previo consentimiento informado, un cuestionario conformado por 32 ítems. Se elaboró una base de datos en Excel y los datos se procesaron en SPSS versión 12.0. La validez de escala evidenció que es una escala corta y la validez discriminante determinó 12 ítems que tenían mayor correlación y agrupó los que tenían correlaciones bajas. La confiabilidad del cuestionario de 32 ítems presentó alfa de Cronbach de 0,59 y el cuestionario de 12 ítems alfa de Cronbach de 0,68, considerándose un puntaje aceptable y bueno en los primeros estudios de validación de un instrumento. La confiabilidad del cuestionario permea todos los procesos de validación, por lo que su interpretación debe ir de la mano del perfeccionamiento continuo de la validez. All data collection instruments must be valid and reliable for the nurse to be able to intervene effectively enabling her to propose health policies that pursue the reduction of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The general objective of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of the questionnaire named “Self-care practices of women during postpartum period”. It is a methodological research. Content validity conducted through the experts test reported a score of 0,88; the face validity with 10 experts and 10 women in a postpartum stage evidenced a consensus of agreement in relation with the clarity and comprehension of the questionnaire. A pilot test was conducted to determine possible adjustments. With participation of 176 postpartum nursing mothers from different socio-economic strata, residing in Bogotá, to whom, prior informed consent, a 32 item questionnaire was applied. A database was put together in Excel and data were processed in SPSS version 12.0. The scale validity showed that it is a short scale; discriminating validity determined 12 items that had a greater correlation and grouped those that had low correlations. The reliability of the 32 item questionnaire presented a Cronbach´s alpha of 0,59 and the 12 item questionnaire a Cronbach´s alpha of 0,68, which is considered an acceptable and a good score in the first validation studies of an instrument. The reliability of the questionnaire permeates all validation processes, reason why its interpretation must go hand in hand with continued validity improvement. Qualquer instrumento de coleta de dados deve ser válido e confiável no intuito de garantir que a intervenção de enfermagem seja efetiva e possibilite a proposição de políticas de saúde em busca de reduzir as cifras de morbimortalidade materna e perinatal. O objetivo geral da pesquisa foi determinar a validez e confiabilidade do questionário “Práticas de autocuidado das mulheres durante o pós-parto”. É uma pesquisa metodológica. A validez do conteúdo mediante a prova de especialistas apresentou uma pontuação de 0,88, a validez facial com 10 especialistas e 10 mulheres no pós-parto evidenciou consenso no tocante à clareza e compreensão do questionário. Realizou-se uma prova piloto para determinar possíveis ajustamentos. Participaram 176 mulheres lactantes no pós-parto de diferentes níveis socioeconômicos, residentes em Bogotá, que, com prévia autorização, completaram o questionário formado por 32 itens. Elaborou-se um banco de dados em Excel e os dados foram processados em SPSS versão 12.0. A validez de escala evidenciou que é uma escala corta e a validez discriminante determinou os 12 itens com maior correlação e agrupou todos os itens que tinham correlações baixas. A confiabilidade do questionário de 32 itens apresentou um alfa de Cronbach de 0,59 e o questionário de 12 itens alfa de Cronbach de 0,68. A pontuação se considera aceitável e boa nos primeiros levantamentos de validação de um instrumento. A confiabilidade do questionário passa por todos os processos de validação, é por isso que a interpretação deve ir acompanhada do aprimoramento continuo da validez.

    Abstract Community engagement is important for reaching vulnerable populations in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. A risk communication framework was implemented by a community-engaged research (CEnR) partnership in Southeast Minnesota to address COVID-19 prevention, testing, and socioeconomic impacts. Bidirectional communication between Communication Leaders and community members within their social networks was used by the partnership to refine messages, leverage resources, and advise policy makers. Over 14 days, messages were delivered by 24 Communication Leaders in 6 languages across 9 electronic platforms to 9882 individuals within their networks.
