Description: The Institute for Community Research looks to use collaborative action research to bring their projects and programs directly into communities. The Institute looks to hold their research in the place where residents live, work and socialize. By being in the place where the residents call home the Institute looks to open up a dialogue process that drives their partnership with the community and its leaders where everyone can determine the priority concerns for the community. The Institute for Community Research looks to incorporate their cornerstone principles of collaboration and partnership, action research, recognizing the value of culture, and intervention, health promotion and health prevention. These pillars of the organization allows for the foundation to work in collaboration with the community they are doing action research in while also helping other communities through new methods of health initiatives and preservation of community culture.
