@BeckyTonietto @finneyoutloud @SeanMarkWatts @leafwarbler @FishadelphiaCsf @MaxRLambert @naturallywild__ @cschell_canids @Science4Justice Awesome plenary and what a fantastic line up of speakers! @BekyTonietto I liked the term "community-engagement research". I am curious to learn more about how the Porch Project was set up and any advice on setting up similar initiatives?
@Laura_A_Nunes @finneyoutloud @SeanMarkWatts @leafwarbler @FishadelphiaCsf @MaxRLambert @naturallywild__ @cschell_canids @Science4Justice We also secured grants that could pay Megan, which is super important when community members are volunteering their time! You can hear us tell our whole story in the mini-doc about #ThePorchProject!

Bonus! One of #ThePorchProject gardens in Flint, MI is featured as the photo! You'll sneak a peek at Megan Heyza, her son, and @UMFlint class of '20 grad @CateMegan planting!
At this home, we also added a sandbox for the preschooler who lives there to play in π»π»π»
We need to make sure when weβre talking about engagement weβre actually doing engagement not just βoutreachβ

Megan Heyza, Founder and Director of #ThePorchProject in Flint, Michigan challenges researchers to evaluate their definitions of meaningful and equitable community engagement (and how that differs from "outreach"). https://t.co/yxDYAXCyKB

Studio Art and Multi-Media students participated in #theporchproject by taking pictures with their family outside at their house. As part of the assignment they were asked to convert them to black and white to replicate the famous pictures of the Great Depression.
More wonderful neighbors donating directly to those in need. Thank you.
