Annotation

The MCH community has a long-standing tradition of integrating family engagement into programs, research, and practice. Yet, tested and validated measures to improve and sustain the quality of family engagement in health services and research are lacking.

Learning Objectives

• Understand currently available measures of family engagement.

• Identify gaps in developing and utilizing these measures.

• Learn innovative strategies for engaging families in research.
