Partnering for Change Knowledge Translation Project 2011-2012

The Partnering for Change (P4C) team received end-of-grant knowledge translation (KT) funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) to translate the findings from the demonstration study (2009-2011)  for our research partners and the community. Research and community partnerships led to subsequent presentations for, and research proposals to, regional and provincial health care funders. The P4C team developed resource materials for families and educators to use in the community and in schools.
