However, little is known regarding how best facilitate engagement remote Objective This study aims (1) understand the context, quality, and outcomes caregivers’ experiences (2) learn aspects observed approach facilitated or need improved. Methods We analyzed qualitative quantitative data from evaluation reflection surveys interviews completed research community partners (family caregivers) across 4 studies.

Descriptive statistics were used summarize data, while reflexive thematic analysis was data. Results 62.9% (83/132) evaluations projects 1-3, participants described session as “very effective.” 74% (28/38) project 4, feeling “extremely satisfied” session. Qualitative relating context identified that identities partners, technological PD, partners’ understanding their role all influenced engagement. Within domain relationship-building co-learning; satisfaction prework, activities, time allotted, final prototype; inclusivity distribution influence contributed experience Outcomes included ongoing interest after its conclusion, gratitude participation, sense meaning self-esteem. Conclusions These results indicate high processes few losses specific PD. also demonstrate ways can changed improve partner outcomes.
