Social prescription in the US
Introduction As the field of public health strives to address the impacts of social determinants of health, it has seen increasing interest in community-referral practices that expand health care beyond clinical spaces. However, community arts and culture organizations are rarely included in these practices, despite accumulating evidence of associated health benefits. In addition, such inclusion has not been formally studied. In response, this ar…
Innovating Health Research Methods, Part I
Accumulating US studies indicate gender inequities in youth violence research and responses. Improving youth health thus requires greater understanding of how girls and young women perceive and experience violence, and gathering such data demands research methods that are trauma-informed and assets-based. This mixed-methods study addresses these dual needs. To support gender equity in youth violence research, it incorporated 4 violence surveys an…

Generating youth dialogue through the literary arts
A process and outcomes evaluation was conducted of a citywide literary-arts initiative designed to reduce stigma, amplify underrepresented narratives, and generate dialogue about violence. Over 4 months, students in 85 middle schools read a novel addressing mental health and violence-related themes. As a collaboration between a public school district and public library system, the program's classroom activities emphasized dialogue, while coordina…
The State of Music-Based Interventions for Mental Illness
Hundreds of studies regarding music's effects on mental health have accumulated across multiple disciplines; however, access to and application of music as a support for mental health remains limited, due in part to the multidisciplinary nature of related research and difficulties synthesizing findings. This qualitative study is the first to address these barriers by gathering current thought leaders and stakeholders at intersections of music and…
Public Health's Next Step in Advancing Equity
The field of public health has increasingly promoted a social ecological approach to health, shifting from an individual, biomedical paradigm to a recognition of social and structural determinants of health and health equity. Yet despite this shift, public health research and practice continue to privilege individual- and interpersonal-level measurements and interventions. Rather than adapting public health practice to social ecological theory, t…
I Shall Live and Not Die”
Remediating racial/ethnic HIV inequities necessitates addressing HIV-related stigma. Arts- and media-based approaches demonstrate potential for effective knowledge translation and HIV-related stigma reduction. This study employs 5 monologues portraying lived experiences of older African Americans living with HIV to do this. Monologues were developed on the basis of qualitative research, actors performed them for live and online audiences, and sur…
Reframing Photovoice
An increasing focus on health equity across a number of health disciplines is generating more consistent prioritizations of trauma-informed approaches, cultural responsiveness, and community engagement. These foci have heightened interest in photovoice as a participatory research method-particularly in research among vulnerable populations or related to sensitive topics. Photovoice's ballooning popularity can be traced in part to the alignment of…
