Refugees often experience compromised health from both pre- and post-migration stressors. Coalition theory has helped guide the development of targeted programs to address the health care needs of vulnerable populations. Using the Community Coalition Action Theory as a framework, a coalition was formed to implement a community garden with apartment-dwelling refugees. Outcomes included successful coalition formation, a community garden, reported satisfaction from all gardeners with increased vegetable intake, access to culturally meaningful foods, and evidence of increased community engagement. The opportunity for community health nurses to convene a coalition to affect positive health for refugees is demonstrated.
难民常常因迁移前和迁移后的压力源而健康受损。联盟理论有助于指导制定有针对性的项目，以满足弱势群体的医疗保健需求。以社区联盟行动理论为框架，成立了一个联盟，为难民公寓居民实施社区花园项目。成果包括联盟的成功组建、一个社区花园、所有园丁报告对蔬菜摄入量增加、获得具有文化意义的食物感到满意，以及社区参与度提高的证据。这表明社区健康护士有机会召集联盟为难民带来积极的健康影响。
