Goals of Community Engagement

Share this


Three primary goals for community engagement

  • Partnering with the community to improve health through solutions that address social, cultural and biological determinants
  • Developing a comprehensive and diverse health care workforce to serve the community
  • Creating innovative health care delivery models that maintain financial stability while serving all members of our community

Tactics to implement community engagement

  • Create a Community Engagement Innovation Institute that will serve as the locus for community engagement.
  • Garner financial resources to support Community Engagement projects and infrastructure.
  • Define community using a multifactorial approach (e.g., geographic region, age, race/ethnicity, foreign born vs. U.S. born, income, medically underserved, etc.)
  • Establish expectations related to community engagement in all mission areas
  • Provide administrative services and infrastructure to support the community engagement mission
  • Consider community engagement scholarship in faculty advancement and compensation
  • Provide financial incentives to departments to encourage community-partnered research and cross-departmental collaboration in community engagement efforts
  • Build capacity to ensure best practices in community engagement initiatives in all mission areas and across UCLA
