Promoting resilience in underserved populations. The fourth volume
in the Interdisciplinary Community-Engaged Research for Health
series departs from the traditional view of resilience driven by
individuals and reconstructs it to hinge on the community of
context. Editors Kelli E. Canada and Clark Peters identified six
scholar-practitioner teams who worked to promote resilience in
communities across the nation facing health crises and other
structural barriers to health, such as low socioeconomic positions,
structural racism, and discrimination. This research is part of a
two-pronged approach to public health, intending to increase
resilience and communities’ internal support while simultaneously
reducing barriers to health care access. The efforts featured in
Community-Engaged Research for Resilience and Health highlight
community-based solutions, points of strength, and sources of
resilience to help communities that are struggling to survive and
thrive in the face of adversity. Whether these communities are
facing opioid addiction or other substance abuse issues, domestic
violence, armed conflict, trauma, or cultural discrimination, the
editors and contributors in this volume share examples of
Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) practices where
through a collaborative partnership, the community actively
participates in every aspect of the alongside the interdisciplinary
research team. What transpires demonstrates how researchers and
communities come together to turn adversity into improved health
through resilience-focused programs and interventions.
