Discerning Deinfibulation
The past decades have seen large numbers of Somali women migrate across the globe. It is critical for healthcare workers in host countries to understand healthcare needs of Somali women. The majority of Somali female migrants experience female genital cutting (FGC). The most common type in Somalia is Type 3 or infibulation, the narrowing of the vaginal introitus. Deinfibulation opens the introitus to reduce poor health outcomes and/or allow for v…
Our Body Our Health (Jirkeena, Caafimaadkeena)
Women across the globe have been subject to female genital cutting (FGC), with the highest rates in Somalia. FGC can result in sexual concerns, especially sexual pain and lower pleasure. Due to ongoing civil war and climate disasters, there is a large number of Somali immigrants and refugees living in countries where healthcare providers may be unfamiliar with the impact of FGC. In this qualitative study, sixty Somali women between the ages 20 an…
Somali, Latino, and Hmong Youth Perceptions of School Connectedness
Purpose: School connectedness positively influences adolescent health outcomes and is a key social determinant of health, yet, contributors to school connectedness for youth from immigrant communities remain poorly defined. Methods: This community-based participatory research study uses thematic analysis to identify contributors to Somali, Latino, and Hmong (SLH) adolescents' school connectedness. We conducted nine focus groups with 71 SLH male a…
Diverse community leaders’ perspectives about quality primary healthcare and healthcare measurement
Community leaders identified ideal characteristics of quality primary healthcare, most of which are not currently measured. They expressed concern that linking clinic payment with quality metrics without considering social and structural determinants of health perpetuates social injustice in healthcare
Evaluation of a school-based participatory intervention to improve school environments using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research
The CFIR is a useful framework for the assessment of participatory research trial implementation. Our findings underscore how the framework can be readily adapted to further strengthen its fit as a tool to examine project implementation in this context
Applying a Race(ism)-Conscious Adaptation of the CFIR Framework to Understand Implementation of a School-Based Equity-Oriented Intervention
Equity-oriented interventions should consider structural racism within the CFIR model to better understand intervention uptake
Lessons Learned in Implementing Youth and Parent Participatory Action Research in a School-Based Intervention
PAR holds promise for application in other settings to address institutional change and social determinants of health
Strategies to Enhance Culturally Responsive Research
Under-representation of minorities in research hinders the ability to address persistent societal inequities. To understand how to increase the cultural responsiveness of research, a community-academic partnership conducted listening sessions and community forums with African Americans in North Carolina, Native Hawaiians in Hawai'i, and Hmong and Latino/a/x communities in Minnesota. Participants shared their concerns and desires for research, as …
Somali, Latino and Hmong parents’ perceptions and approaches about raising healthy-weight children
Objective Immigrants in the USA are confronted with health disparities, including childhood obesity and obesity-related chronic diseases. We aimed to identify perceptions of childhood body weight, approaches to raising healthy children and desires for supportive programmes of Somali, Latino and Hmong (SLM) parents in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA. Design Using community-based participatory research, ten focus groups (FG) were conducted with six…
Concept Mapping as an Approach to Facilitate Participatory Intervention Building
