Minneapolis Health Department co-designed and co-piloted storytelling as a new community engagement process to inform the
department’s health policy and programmatic work for the well-being of city residents. This process involved completing and video recording a series of intergenerational storytelling events from December 2006 to June 2007 in multicultural communities:
African American, American Indian, Caucasian, Hmong, Latino, Somali, and Vietnamese.
There is a workbook that goes with the video available on our website: www.minneapolismn.gov/health
