Culturally consistent community-based health promotion interventions have been identified as integral components of strategies to decrease health disparities. The limited number of culturally competent scholars impedes the development of appropriate interventions. This article examines issues relevant to the development of scholars interested in community-based health promotion research. It is the outcome of a series of discussions by the authors held over a 3-month period. Specific topics include classroom and communal educational opportunities to enhance cultural competence and creation of supportive environments for aspiring community-based scholars. Particular attention is given to the importance of ongoing opportunities for interaction between students and lay community scholars.
