Diane,
Thanks for responding and getting in touch with me again.  I am just
finishing the writing of the summary of all of the data that I have
collected and I need to get that finished before following up on the
responses to my Click4HP e-mail question - and they look very interesting.
 Do you have any time next Wednesday afternoon or next Friday (April 9 or
11) that I can call?
Gayle

Hi Gayle,
Please give me a call and I will share some of the things we did for the

Subject: Meaningful participation-people on low-income


Hi,
I am working as project coordinator for a project titled, "Addressing
Poverty as a Determinant of Health" in Calgary.  One of the desired
outcomes of this project is to increase the involvement of the people who
live in poverty in the identification of issues and problem-solving of
these issues.  This is to be done along with stakeholders from other
sectors such as public and not-for-profit organizations.  It is very
important that this involvement be meaningful and safe for the
participants.  One person on low-income suggested that she would be
comfortable and interested in being part of a 'citizen advisory group' with
her peers but not sitting at the table with all the people in suits.
I would like to be in touch with others who have worked within a model or
framework that supports the process of collaboration between all sectors
within a community (including people on low-income) or any literature that
deals with this type of collaboration.  I look forward to your ideas.
Thanks,
Gayle Rutherford
