♦ Research Projects
Community-based Participatory Research Project for Oregonians Living with Invisible Chronic Conditions
I’m currently planning a project to study the unique challenges in living with chronic health conditions that we face every day . This project builds from the community up and the information will provide clearer objectives on individual, community, regional and state-levels to help building stronger planning for future health care resources here in Oregon. Estimated implementation is late Spring 2013.
Recruitment information and research description will be available February 2013.
