Overview<\/h3>\n
The Community Campus Partnership Support (CCPS) Program funds partnership and relationship building activities th<\/span>at <\/span>spark collaborative health research ideas and build capacity for community engaged research at NAU<\/b>. Workshops and activities throughout CCPS help community and university partners develop research questions and ideas to prepare them to pursue community-engaged research together following the program.<\/span><\/p>\n CCPS is a cohort-style program that encourages interactive learning between community and university partners and across teams. Faculty from all fields and community partners from any focus area or organization size are welcome. NAU investigators are encouraged to apply for SHERC\u2019s <\/span>Pilot Project Program<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n –CCPS NAU Partner<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Strong relationships are foundational to community-based research. When pursuing research together, it\u2019s important for university and community partners to spend time building trust, learning about each other\u2019s work, and identifying areas of mutual interest.<\/p>\n To facilitate relationship building, CCPS is grounded in the principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR). Principles of CBPR include trust, open communication, common interest, shared ownership, and open-mindedness. As a partnership approach to research, CBPR involves community members and researchers in all aspects of the research process – from choosing research questions and designing the project to analyzing data and disseminating the findings.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Since the first round of CCPS in 2018, SHERC has supported over 30 community-campus partnerships.<\/span><\/p>\n Collaborations have included a wide range of organizations working in areas like school nutrition, suicide prevention, stress-reduction for farmworkers, and youth development through mountain biking. Partnerships have also engaged Tribal nations and organizations including the Cocopah Tribe, Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, Navajo Department of Health, Dine\u2019 Bi\u2019 Olta School Board Association, Chinle Comprehensive Health Care Facility, Gila River Health Care, and Tuba City Regional Health Care Corporation.<\/span><\/p>\n NAU partners have come from many fields including anthropology, biological sciences, chemistry and biochemistry, criminology and criminal justice, education, nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, social work, and sociology.<\/span><\/p>\n Learn more about current and past CCPS partnerships below.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Partners receive up to $5,000 for a 12-month period to support partnership building activities. CCPS applicants must apply as a team of at least one NAU faculty partner and one community or tribal-based organizational partner (with a minimum of 1 year in current position). NAU investigators must be a Professor at any stage (TT or NTT, including early stage investigators), Research Professor, Clinical Professor, Teaching Professor, Professor of Practice, Lecturer, or Postdoctoral Scholar.<\/span><\/p>\n ***Please note that CCPS is NOT a research grant and funds cannot be spent on research activities (e.g., data collection). CCPS-funded partnerships are meant to <\/span><\/i>lay the groundwork for establishing community-based research projects in the future<\/i><\/b>.***<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n The application period for the current round of CCPS is closed.
