Community Partnerships

We value the partner ships that we have fostered with community organizations.

Both the ones that we have forged on our own, as well as the ones we have gained via our Pilot Awardee Projects.

These partnerships have led to an immense amount of collaboration as well as furthering our mission.

About CHEEER

The Center for Health Equity Engagement Education and Research was established by Case Western Reserve University and MetroHealth Medical Center to reduce health disparities through research on root causes, mechanisms, and interventions; through education of students, providers, and policy makers; and through partnership with community organizations and government agencies.

The aims of this Core are to facilitate community based research among faculty, students, community organizations, and community residents.
