Evaluating Satisfaction of Participants within the Outreach and Engagement Program of MECCA

<p> The present study aimed to provide literature on community-based programs and correlated participant satisfaction, to examine the factors that contribute to participant satisfaction within community-based programs, and to evaluate outcomes of participant satisfaction for MECCA&rsquo;s O&amp;E program, as well as reflection on components of the O&amp;E program that produce satisfaction ratings. The primary research question of the present study was: Were participants satisfied with their participant in MECCA&rsquo;s O&amp;E program for both fiscal years and if so, what factors may have contributed to their satisfaction? Through use of description analyses on outcomes of the Participant Satisfaction Survey from MECCA&rsquo;s six community-based agencies, findings indicate that MECCA provided culturally-responsive and linguistically congruent services. Additionally, participants were satisfied overall with the O&amp;E services and would elect to obtain services from the O&amp;E program again. O&amp;E&rsquo;s success can be attributed to MECCA&rsquo;s foundation in cultural responsiveness, diversity empowerment, destigmatizing mental health services, and collaboration with the communities to create and provide community-based programs.</p><p>
