<h2>HEAL Values the Voices of Lived Experience</h2><p>To realize the NIH HEAL Initiative<sup>®</sup> mission, the voices of people with lived experience are vital. A core HEAL principle is that research must be relevant to the individuals, families, communities, and populations it is designed to help. The <a href="https://heal.nih.gov/about/community-partner-committee">HEAL Community Partner Committee</a>, first convened in 2021, aims to help HEAL identify, refine, and prioritize patient and community engagement activities.</p><p>HEALs whole-person research approach recognizes that individuals are unique—with a range of conditions and experiences that affect resilience and risk. Communities across the country are highly diverse, requiring culturally relevant approaches that resonate with them.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Infusing Patient and Community Engagement in HEAL-Funded Research</h2><p>HEAL investigators are taking a variety of unique approaches to incorporate guidance and perspectives of community members into their research projects. In 2022, researchers from 147 HEAL-funded projects <a href="https://heal.nih.gov/about/community-partner-committee/patient-engagement">shared information</a> about their patient and community engagement efforts. They develop these approaches in the context of individual studies, settings, and patient populations to better engage patients, communities, and other stakeholders; and to improve recruitment, retention, and inclusion of participants from populations that experience health inequities.</p>

<h2>What Does HEAL Mean by Patient and Community Engagement?</h2><p>HEAL-funded research involves people with lived experience throughout the research process: planning a study, implementing it, and sharing the results so they can be useful for real people in real communities. People with lived experience can make important contributions to all types of research, from basic science and discovery to clinical trials and implementation science.</p><h3>Who to Engage</h3><p>People with lived experience with pain and/or substance use disorders, their caregivers, health care providers, and community groups who provide support all have valuable insights. People with lived experience from groups that have been underrepresented in research projects bring additional, critical perspectives that can <a href="https://nam.edu/assessing-meaningful-community-engagement-a-conceptual-model-to-advance-health-equity-through-transformed-systems-for-health/">advance health equity</a>.</p><h3>When Can Researchers Engage People?</h3><p>Decisions occur throughout the lifecycle of a research project. They include the choice of research question, which populations to study, eligibility criteria, recruitment and activities to retain participants during the study, development of study materials such as informed consent forms and instructional materials, and perspectives on data analysis and interpretation of findings. People with lived experience of pain and/or a substance use disorder and other relevant collaborators can be engaged at any of these decision points.</p><h3>What Does Effective Engagement Look Like?</h3><p>Effective engagement:</p><ul><li>Requires open dialogue.</li><li>Is collaborative and mutually beneficial.</li><li>Shares power.</li><li>Means communities feel that their input is valued and acted on.</li><li>Aligns with individual and community needs, cultural values, and preferences for how they offer feedback.</li><li>Can be measured.</li></ul><p>Consider these examples of <a href="https://blogs.ubc.ca/imhablog/2021/10/13/tokenism-seeing-it-fixing-it-perspectives-from-patient-partners/">common scenarios experienced by people</a> with lived experience who advise on studies and opportunities to ensure effective engagement, rather than tokenism.</p>

In addition, early engagement can reveal how people with lived experience and their communities could help in other stages of the research; it also can ensure that sufficient mechanisms and budgets are in place for their feedback.</p>
