This article presents the evaluation of the DS\u2010TO\u2010THE\u2010MAX Co\u2010Research Program to assess program process and outcomes. The team consists of co\u2010researchers with Down syndrome and academic researchers who collaborate on health research projects important to the Down syndrome community.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We developed a logic model to map program components and outcomes. From the model, we identified and assessed five key areas. We interviewed seven co\u2010researchers with Down syndrome and conducted a focus group with research assistants based on key areas. We analysed using thematic analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We found that mutual recognition of contributions and multiple communication modes facilitated engagement and team connectedness. Co\u2010researchers reported their interests and experiences drove contributions, and they saw benefits from collaborating with each other. Co\u2010researchers noticed accessible team practices and described self\u2010advocating. Though co\u2010researchers did not explicitly identify as researchers, they reported making decisions and feeling heard and valued. They shared barriers such as difficult vocabulary.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our evaluation showed that relationships and co\u2010researchers' experiences and interests were central to research engagement.
