learning, equity, and sustainability
Fostering participation, innovation,
The Center for Re-Imagining Implementation Science and Equity is an institute dedicated to bridging the gap between research and practice by applying innovative participatory implementation science tools to improve the public’s health equity.
We collaborate and meaningfully engage in strength-based partnerships with people themselves and other key stakeholders, communities, and organizations to unlock possibilities that will help the next generation grow and thrive.
We need a response to the sense of urgency many of us feel in public health. This sense of urgency isn't new. But, action has been limited. C-RISE seeks to be the platform by which we propel public health forward, in equitable, accessible, and sustainable ways that centers the public.
