The World Trade Center Health Program: Impact Assessment and Strategic Planning for Translational Research (Part 1, Formative Research: Focus Groups)

The World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP) was established by the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010. The Zadroga Act requires the establishment of a research program on health conditions resulting from the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The ability of the WTCHP to serve its members and realize positive impacts on all of its stakeholders depends on effective translation of research activities and findings in a manner that is appropriate to diverse stakeholder groups, including investigators of WTCHP-funded research, the leadership of the WTC Clinical Centers of Excellence, WTC Health Registry staff, clinicians who provide medical services to responders and survivors, and WTCHP respondents and survivors. The focus groups proposed for this work will provide information on stakeholder views about three important translational science principles: the relevance, transparency, and usability of WTCHP research. Findings will provide guidance for the WTCHP on strategic directions, as well as produce generalizable knowledge about the translation of research into improved outcomes for individuals and populations exposed to disasters such as the 9/11 attacks. This is a request for a non-substantive change to the recruitment emails and focus group guide.
