Stakeholder Engagement Resource Guide


A Stakeholder Engagement Resource Guide assists investigators in obtaining community feedback for their research projects.

This downloadable guidance provides valuable information for establishing meaningful stakeholder involvement as research progresses through grant application to study design, protocol development, recruitment, and execution. If you have any questions about the material in the Resource Guide, e-mail RaNaja Kennedy, CTSI Community Engagement Facilitator.
