Engaging Individuals with Disability in the Research Process
Overview
This WG is expected to have wide-ranging impact across the CTSA network, the broader disability community, and potentially across other NIH institutes. It is anticipated that this work will result in practical strategies and materials. Perhaps more importantly, it will provide a constructive model for a culture change in the research community that elevates the perspectives of individuals with lived experience in ways that result in meaningful research outcomes for the lived experience community. We anticipate that both the toolkit and the published paper will be promoted by the AUCD network to enhance disability-related research and may be adopted by a number of NIH institutes for research that includes individuals with lived experience with other health priorities (e.g., diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, sickle cell disease).

Group Goals
Provide the research community with knowledge, resources, and?tools that will facilitate engagement of individuals with lived?experience in the conduct of research?
Provide the research community with a process that enhances the quality of scientific outcomes and meaningfulness of the research to the community that is the focus of the research.
