Sharing Our Experiences to Advance Community Health

The Charities research team regularly engages in publication of peer-reviewed journal articles, project specific reports and community based reports. Regular publication of our work allows us to stay current within our field of research and thereby enhance the quality of research and service we provide to the underserved. Additionally, by publishing our community-based research, we bring a voice to the area's underserved and maintain a focus on health disparities that disproportionately affect our area by highlighting these issues in journals of national and international importance.

The Charities research team also regularly presents our research findings at international, national and local conferences and venues. Our engagement in public presentations allows us to not only maintain our reputation for outstanding research and to highlight our communities' health needs, but also to seek out new and innovative approaches and collaborations which ultimately benefit our service to the underserved in our region.
