We are proud to announce that the READYorNot™ Brain-Based Disabilities Project has been awarded a CHILD-BRIGHT ConneKT Fund grant, which provides funding of up to $5,000 to CHILD-BRIGHT research teams to help them finance knowledge translation events or products that increase engagement with community partners, achieve meaningful stakeholder participation, and build positive relationships between stakeholders and project members.

Project summary:
We proposed this webinar to showcase a unique set of strategies to tackle obstacles our CHILD-BRIGHT READYorNot™ Brain-Based Disabilities (BBD) Trial is facing due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the webinar, we co-presented with our Patient and Family Advisory Council partners to describe the work we are doing to adapt our approach to recruitment, training and support materials, consent and assent, and study visits. This webinar facilitated crosstalk between projects and was timely to increase engagement and enthusiasm among community partners at a time when many of our sites are starting up recruitment.

CONGRATULATIONS!
