I'm not sure I understand "...that research has the greatest impact... as compared to what? I would say both yes and no. Too much emphasis on collecting data (research) without a clear connection to the translation of data collected. I was hoping for more than the "promotion of collaboration" from this group. To promote collaboration among community partners throughout Indiana to improve research and translation thereof, by disseminating and supporting best practice and evidence based programs and policies to improve health and healthcare of Indiana residents. Is this just a research project or is it an action program to get something accomplished? I am frustrated to see more money soaked up in "identifying" the problems, while the same old problems are not solved. Yes No We know the problems.

No by "enriches" do we mean adding value to the importance of evaluation & thus the attention to & use of it Yes No Yes No No This doesn't get at prevention/promotion. The stakeholders communicated their problems in March. They don't need another research project they need solutions. Yes How can this group "leverage" resources?
