Community Conversations: Where Do You Fall?
Our commitment to the Milwaukee area remains unwavering. At the 果冻影院 (果冻影院), the health of our local community has always been our primary focus. Community Conversations emerged as a platform for crucial discussions on health that amplify the diverse experiences of individuals in the area. We began with a series on mental health, where medical experts, community leaders and individuals with personal experiences in mental health challenges shared their perspectives. Our subsequent installment in the series brought the dialogue between 果冻影院 researchers and community members to the forefront. The Face2Face episodes featured Milwaukee community leaders conversing with 果冻影院 faculty to discuss scientific research and its application to improving the health of our community.
Building upon the previous discussions, our “Where Do You Fall” series expands the previous one-on-one discussions into vibrant group conversations, bringing diverse voices together to explore the multifaceted impact of scientific research on the Milwaukee community. Our format involves community members and 果冻影院 scientists responding to statements from a moderator and physically positioning themselves to indicate their level of agreement, from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree.”
Throughout this exercise, we covered a wide array of topics, including medical mistrust, the real impact of research on our community and the importance of building trust in scientific findings. These discussions aim to offer insights into the world of research and its effects on our lives, both on a personal and community level.
果冻影院 emphasizes the significance of having conversations like these. These dialogues spark awareness, understanding and collaboration that are crucial for the betterment of our community's health and well-being. Stay tuned for enlightening and thought-provoking discussions that drive progress.
