Authors: LePrevost, Catherine E; Walton, AnnMarie Lee; Thomas, Gayle; Lipscomb, Allison

Published In Environ Res, (2018 Aug)

Abstract: Farmworker health outreach workers have not traditionally been involved in the prioritization and design of research studies. This report from the field shares the results of a survey administered to outreach workers providing health services to farmworkers in North Carolina. Priority areas of research and best practices for engaged research are presented from the perspective of the outreach worker community. The purposeful involvement of outreach workers can make farmworker health research more meaningful and solution-oriented.
