This qualitative research study is meant to capture community perspectives on how Encore Boston Harbor has affected the day-to-day quality of life of people in the Casino’s surrounding communities. The NORC-Institute for Community Health team used a community-engaged research approach, convening a community advisory board (CAB) to involve community members living and working around Encore in the research design, data collection, analysis, and dissemination of findings. The CAB ensured they represented community needs and perspectives throughout the study.
