Community-Based Translational Research in Arizona: Enhancing Partnerships With Hispanic/Latino Communities

Community-Based Participatory Research was identified as the foundation for developing collaborative, team based engagements among their organizations and communities in Arizona. Native Americans and Hispanic/Latino communities were chosen as the initial focus for this initiative. This document is the culmination of one of the goals of this initiative—the creation of a handbook to familiarize and guide investigators in the principles and applications of Community-Based Participatory Research. This document is focused on the issues related to the Hispanic/Latino communities.
