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!
