"To promote equity, justice, and inclusion in clinical research through advocacy, education, and community support."
This mission encapsulates the organization's dedication to addressing the long-standing disparities present in the field of clinical research. CRJL recognizes that historically marginalized communities often face barriers to participation, leading to a lack of representation in research studies. Through targeted advocacy efforts, CRJL seeks to dismantle these barriers and ensure that all individuals have a voice in the research that impacts their health and well-being. Education plays a pivotal role in CRJL’s mission. By equipping both researchers and community members with knowledge about the importance of diverse participation in clinical trials, CRJL aims to foster informed dialogue and collaboration. Additionally, community support initiatives are designed to empower underserved populations, enabling them to engage actively in the research process and advocate for their own needs and interests.
"A clinical research ecosystem where underserved communities have equitable access to participation and benefit."
This vision is ambitious yet critical, as it seeks to redefine the relationship between clinical research and the communities it serves. CRJL believes that every segment of society has the right to participate in research that affects them and to reap the benefits that come from such involvement. In this ideal ecosystem, barriers to entry would be eliminated, and resources would be allocated to ensure that all populations can engage in clinical trials. This includes providing information in accessible formats, offering transportation assistance, and creating culturally sensitive outreach programs. The envisioned future is one where the diversity of participants mirrors the diversity of the population at large, leading to more relevant and effective health outcomes for everyone.
CRJL is committed to open communication and honesty in all dealings, ensuring that stakeholders are informed and engaged throughout the research process. Transparency fosters trust, which is essential in building relationships with communities that have historically been skeptical of clinical research.
As a champion for underrepresented populations, CRJL actively works to amplify the voices of those who have been marginalized in clinical research. Advocacy efforts are directed toward policy change, increased funding for inclusive research initiatives, and raising awareness about the importance of diversity in clinical trials.
CRJL understands that meaningful change requires partnerships across various sectors, including academia, community organizations, healthcare providers, and policymakers. By fostering collaborative relationships, CRJL aims to create a unified front that can effectively address the challenges faced by underserved communities in the clinical research arena.
At the core of CRJL’s ethos is a commitment to social justice. The organization is dedicated to rectifying the inequities that exist within clinical research and ensuring that all individuals receive fair treatment and opportunities for participation. This value drives CRJL's efforts to challenge systemic injustices and advocate for policies that promote equity.
