Although many successful Community Advisory Boards (CABs) are discussed in the literature, some articles report that community members feel they are treated as token participants, or that their voices are not heard. This article describes the initial steps we took in designing an effective and empowered CAB, the underlying group dynamics principles we employed to formulate this CAB, and the structure and processes we instituted. We focused on how to build decision-making procedures that support and enhance the group’s function and effectiveness over the long term. Additionally, we considered how we might intervene when these features become out of balance. Though the literature on CABs often talks about power dynamics, explanations of what is meant by this label are rare. We resolved to explore these dynamics and to design a CAB that would operate successfully in full recognition of power dynamics
