Our Journey to Better Health Mobile Exhibit will continue its route by visiting four new locations in 2025! We’re looking to grow our Community Educator network and invite new community members and organizations to help support our events in these areas:
April – Greater Boston Area, MA
July – Newark, NJ
September – Buffalo, NY
October – Fayetteville, NC
If you are local to the following areas and interested in joining our journey, contact our team now!
Journey to Better Health is an outreach initiative that brings information about clinical research to the heart of underserved communities by way of a traveling exhibit. In turn, the CISCRP team can gain a better understanding of how community-based education may affect people’s attitudes and perceptions towards clinical research.
The goal of this project is to:
Engage diverse communities in clinical research by integrating into the community and meeting folks where they are to make this information accessible
Raise awareness about clinical research
Address underlying barriers to participation
Increase engagement of communities that have not been appropriately represented in the clinical research process
You can make an impact by sharing our message within your community. We provide the resources and support to help you speak at local libraries, churches, synagogues, community centers, and other local community organizations about clinical trials and the importance of participation.
What an important, interactive, and impactful program.

We need more education like this! If the RV didn't come to my neighborhood, I would have never learned anything like this.
