Black children are twice as likely as non-Hispanic white children to have asthma due to an interplay of socioeconomic, historical, and industrial factors. The underlying socio-economic and structural inequities result in poor adherence to recommended asthma management treatments. National guidelines suggest asthma action plans (AAPs) as a tool for patient self-management, yet they remain underutilized. Boot Camp Translation (BCT), rooted in community-based participatory research, provides a method for engaging communities to improve health literacy. This article describes the successful use of BCT to develop a culturally relevant AAP promotion campaign in West Louisville, a predominantly Black community that experiences social and health disparities.
