Welcome to the Community Engagement Core
The FSU Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) and Network for Clinical Research, Training, and Community Engagement Core (NCRT-CE) works closely with a variety of partners, including other universities, government agencies, healthcare providers, non-profits, community leaders, and members. Our Research Community Health Workers (CHWs) have experience in public health and community engagement, helping connect researchers with the community.
We create educational programs based on what the community needs, such as the Learning Series for Community Leaders and Our Community, Our Health Town Halls. These programs aim to strengthen the community’s role in research, share important resources, and provide helpful health information.
NCRT-CE has worked on research projects across Florida, including studies on health and wellness involving people of different ages, genders, races, ethnicities, and income levels. These projects include everything from practical clinical trials to community-based research in rural, suburban, and urban areas.
Meet Our Community Research Coordinators
At FSU Health Community Engagement, our team of Community Research Coordinators are trusted connectors who serve as vital links between academic research and the communities we serve. Rooted in the neighborhoods they support, these coordinators work hand-in-hand with individuals, families, and local organizations to ensure that health initiatives are not only evidence-based but also culturally relevant and community-informed.
They engage in a wide range of activities—from building meaningful relationships and conducting health education to collecting and analyzing data that reflect the lived experiences of community members. Their work helps identify health needs, inform public health strategies, and co-create solutions that are both sustainable and impactful.
By amplifying community voices and fostering trust, our coordinators at FSU Health play a critical role in advancing health, improving access to care, and shaping research that truly reflects the needs and strengths of Florida's populations.
Learning Series for Community Leaders
The FSU Network for Clinical Research, Training, and Community Engagement (NCRT-CE) 2025 Learning Series for Community Leaders is a monthly educational series aimed at providing community leaders with valuable resources and knowledge to enhance community health, leadership, and overall well-being. The series will focus on a variety of relevant topics that impact communities, and each session will feature expert speakers, tools, and resources to help strengthen community resilience.
