COMMUNITY-DRIVEN RESEARCH DAY encourages collaborations between researchers and community-based organizations (CBOs) and community groups who have research questions that they are interested in answering, specifically in ways that address social determinants of health. Through an interactive poster session, CBOs and community groups will highlight their questions to CDRD participants, who will include area non-profits, community groups, public sector partners, and researchers from The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, The University of Pennsylvania, Temple University, Drexel University, Thomas Jefferson University, La Salle University, CBOs, community groups, academic researchers, and students will be able to meet and discuss potential, mutually- beneficial collaborations.

We are looking for presenters, CBOs, and community groups to participate in an interactive virtual poster presentation that will highlight the organization’s/group’s mission, goals, and major accomplishments. Posters/PowerPoint will also display questions that they are interested in answering about partnering for advancing health and equity. You must apply to present by Friday, January 19th, 2024.
