Community-based coalitions have become accepted vehicles for addressing complex health problems. Few articles have described the challenges and lessons learned from such a process. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: 1) to describe the processes involved in building and maintaining the REACH 2010 Alabama Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Coalition (ABCCCC) and 2) to highlight the lessons learned from this venture. Principles from community-based participatory research were used 1) to establish and maintain the ABCCCC, 2) to build coalition capacity, and 3) to develop breast and cervical cancer interventions. Over 95% of our coalition has been maintained over a 7-year period. The ABCCCC received a total of 17 breast and cervical cancer mini-grants. Adherence to ground rules such as exhibiting respect and trust and practicing open communication helped to solidify our partnership. Lessons learned from the ABCCCC can provide others with an in-depth exploration of the processes involved in coalition formation and maintenance.
基于社区的联盟已成为解决复杂健康问题的公认载体。很少有文章描述过这一过程中面临的挑战和吸取的经验教训。本文的目的有两个：1）描述建立和维持“2010年阿拉巴马州乳腺癌和宫颈癌控制联盟”（ABCCCC）所涉及的过程；2）强调从这项工作中吸取的经验教训。基于社区参与性研究的原则被用于：1）建立和维持ABCCCC；2）建设联盟能力；3）制定乳腺癌和宫颈癌干预措施。在7年的时间里，我们联盟超过95%的成员得以保留。ABCCCC总共获得了17项乳腺癌和宫颈癌小额赠款。遵守诸如表现出尊重和信任以及进行开放沟通等基本规则有助于巩固我们的伙伴关系。从ABCCCC吸取的经验教训可以为其他人深入探索联盟形成和维持所涉及的过程提供帮助。
