Analysis of Network Characteristics to Assess Community Capacity of Latino-Serving Organizations in Philadelphia.
Latino immigrants are disproportionately impacted by substance use, HIV/AIDS, domestic violence, and mental health (SAVAME). The burden of these syndemic conditions is influenced by limited access to health and social services to prevent and treat these conditions. The syndemic nature of these facto...

The burden of these syndemic conditions is influenced by limited access to health and social services to prevent and treat these conditions. The syndemic nature of these factors necessitates an integrated, coordinated approach to address them simultaneously. We analyzed characteristics of Latino-serving organizations in Philadelphia, PA, that provide SAVAME-related health and/or social services, and their interorganizational collaborations to meet the needs of Philadelphia's Latino communities. We surveyed Latino-serving organizations (N=43) identified through existing resource directories and key informants. Network analyses identified patterns and density of collaborative ties (i.e., referrals, administrative, or planning/advocacy) across organizations and characterized these ties by type of service. Density (expressed as percent of all possible ties) revealed a higher referral rate (40%) than administrative (29%) or planning (26%) coordination. Network sociograms display clusters of providers by geography. Examination of bonding (within-group) ties revealed comparable perceptions of high value among both South/Center Philadelphia (57%) and in North Philadelphia providers (56%), but bridging (between-group) ties suggest lower levels of high-value perceptions (24%). No evident clustering by type of service based on syndemic factor was observed. Density of bridging across types of providers was highest for referrals (38%) followed by planning (23%) and administrative coordination (20%). Interventions to promote collaboration between providers should focus on facilitating administrative and planning collaborations that leverage existing capacity of the network. Given the syndemic nature of these conditions, greater collaboration between providers of complementing SAVAME services is imperative. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
