OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Youth and Families Determined to Succeed (YFDS), a non-profit organization in Hennepin County, MN, provides programs to address health disparities and increase health equity in diverse families. The objective of this capacity building community engaged research study was to identify factors and opportunities to expand YFDS. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A community partnered participatory research framework using 3 community engaged (CE) studies was conducted. This structured research process involves a facilitated discussion with a presentation on YFDS programming and a guided discussion with YFDS stakeholders. The theoretical foundation included constructs from the Model of Improvement and Health Belief Model. A trained qualitative research team led the discussion, took detailed notes, and used traditional content analysis to thematically code the notes (n = 29 pages). The studios were not audio recorded for confidentiality. Preliminary findings were presented to YFDS leadership with plans to present the results to YFDS stakeholders and families. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 16 YFDS past and current members participated in the studios. The average age was 42.5 years with 69% female and 75% black participants. The main themes were YFDS programming, outreach, and partnership. Participants mentioned YFDS youth “gained confidence”, found an additional family, and suggested ways to increase outreach and partnerships. Participants suggested YFDS increase their social media presence, create multicultural programing, partner with faith based organizations and schools, and determine new ways to evaluate health, social, and athletic gains. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: YFDS has positively impacted the lives of their families. With the use of CE studios, we have the opportunity to hear the voices of the members impacted that is necessary for capacity building community engaged research. We were able to find factors that made YFDS successful and suggestions to better improve and to increase positive wellness gains.

Technological Advances

The rapid proliferation of health informatics and digital health innovations has revolutionized clinical and research practices. There is no doubt that these fields will continue to have accelerated growth and a substantial impact on population health. However, there are legitimate concerns about how these promising technological advances can lead to unintended consequences such as perpetuating health and health care disparities for underresourced populations. To mitigate this potential pitfall, it is imperative for the health informatics and digital health scientific communities to understand the challenges faced by disadvantaged groups, including racial and ethnic minorities, which hinder their achievement of ideal health. This paper presents illustrative exemplars as case studies of contextually tailored, sociotechnical mobile health interventions designed with community members to address health inequities using community-engaged research approaches. We strongly encourage researchers and innovators to integrate community engagement into the development of data-driven, modernized solutions for every sector of society to truly achieve health equity for all.
