 ournalism\, University of New Mexico TITLE: "Engaging in Communities in E
 nvironmental Health Research" Abstract. Engaging communities in environme
 ntal health research is essential for producing actionable\, culturally a
 ppropriate and sustainable solutions\, especially in regions facing compl
 ex environmental challenges. Drawing on lessons from New Mexico communiti
 es\, including wildfire-affected areas\, rural water systems\, and mining
  communities\, this presentation will highlight effective strategies for 
 building long-term partnerships by supporting community research prioriti
 es. Key insights include the importance of trust building\, applying evid
 ence-based clear communication (Plain Language) principles\, shared decis
 ion-making\, and honoring local cultures and knowledge. Case examples fro
 m collaborations with rural\, mining\, Native American\, and Urban commun
 ities illustrate how co-designed research can improve environmental monit
 oring\, environmental health communication\, and diversify academic resea
 rch portfolios. These lessons offer a framework for strengthening environ
 mental health community engagement in different communities. YSPH values 
 inclusion & access for all participants. If you have questions about acce
 ssibility or would like to request an accommodation\, please contact Lore
