Webinar TOMORROW 2-3pm EST:

Reciprocity, Care, and Co-Production: Rethinking Recruitment through a Research Consortium (free CEUs & CRCs for any attendee!)

Many communities are often overlooked in research, even though the results help shape policies, services, and programs that affect their daily lives.

The Helping Improve Research Participation (CHIRP) group was created to fix these gaps by building trust, sharing stories, and strengthening connections between researchers and community members.
