Rethinking community-engaged research through storytelling

Through digital storytelling, Project BRIDGE (Bi-directional Research + Digital Engagement) aims to cultivate genuine and sustainable partnerships among the health community of academics, researchers, providers and the larger Latinx community to increase understanding of community health needs and to improve equity and synergy in community-centered research.

Our inaugural storytelling series highlighted the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on our Latinx communities, where community members and allies shared their experiences navigating the burden of COVID-19 in their personal lives and in their communities in Washington state.
