Community Partnership Strategies with Veteran Organizations
Presentation Types
Collaborative, interdisciplinary symposia: 90-minute group presentations optimally integrating veteran, researcher/scholar, and clinical perspectives on collaboratively developed projects designed to address complex issues with veteran care. Projects can be at any stage of development, but should be able to demonstrate meaningful engagement across the perspectives of the different stakeholder groups, negotiating differences in approach and priorities. Projects that utilize a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR), Community Engagement in Research (CEnR), or Collaborative Design perspective are particularly encouraged to apply.
Extended Poster Discussion: Posters focused on research, scholarship, and/or clinical innovation focused on veterans. Poster session is designed to encourage active discussion between presenters and attendees from a wide variety of backgrounds. Veteran related projects at any stage are welcome, including undergraduate and graduate student research, as well as works by veterans and veteran serving organizations.
