The inherent collaborative nature of qualitative approaches, particularly when applied within a community-engaged research framework. Qualitative research practiced within a CBPR framework empowers community members by providing a platform that is power-shifting and transformative for the community stakeholders.

Based off the survey results the clients that were willing to be part of CBPR quantitative research would be provided broadly stated questions that explore their perception of the AHCCCS organization with consideration to their treatment setting which should provide descriptive data with depth for understanding on how to improve client compliance.
