Non-profit organizations in four regions of the US are navigating challenges in implementing the "Parenting in 2 Worlds" program for urban American Indian families. Analyzing feedback from different stakeholders and employing the Urgent-Important Matrix for prioritization, the presentation outlines identified issues and ways to bridge gaps between research and practice.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion, the participants will be able to pinpoint the key challenges encountered in the implementation of culturally tailored parenting programs for urban American Indian families.
Upon completion, the participants will be able to evaluate the feedback from parent-participants and facilitators to prioritize the challenges as a researcher.
Upon completion, the participants will be able to identify and address potential disconnects between the university-based research team and the community-based sites during interventions.
