Abstract
Burnout in health professionals can impact therapeutic outcomes in patients. Improving health outcomes for marginalized populations and bridging the gap in health disparities requires a concerted effort among all major stakeholders. The Workgroup Enhancing Community Advocacy & Research Engagement (WE-CARE) program at the University of South Florida is a pharmacy-led cross collaboration of multiple stakeholders who serve as an integrated network of academia, researchers, and community to improve health disparities by increasing minority enrollment and participation in research and building trust and mutual respect between the community and researchers. To do this effectively WE-CARE uses a 360-degree community engagement model that maximizes the efforts of all involved. This chapter explains the mission, community-engaging activities, collaborations, and research-supporting efforts that WE-CARE employs to fulfill its mission and describes how it has tried to mitigate burnout in health professionals through its activities.
