The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation wanted to hear directly from families and caregivers who live in economically disadvantaged communities where critical health challenges exist in order to learn how to better support families with the greatest needs. In the Listening Tour, along with NewStories, they chose to visit places that, from the outside, looked as if they were facing a lot of challenges. They suspected that if they looked deeper they would see that the places with the greatest challenges were also the places with the greatest capacity for change, communities capable of using the insight, energy, commitment, and resources they could pull together to find ways to create health and well-being.
The learnings from that tour are presented in this report: download the PDF of the report here.
