Southeast Ohio Community Advisory Board

The CAB knows what tactics will work best in their community and helps expand research into the Appalachian region of Ohio. Our overarching goal is to help improve the health of these communities. CAB members were recruited based on their leadership, desire for positive change in their neighborhood and support of research.

The CAB provides research teams with feedback on their projects gives the CAB members an opportunity to share their ideas, concerns and suggestions. Members have formed valuable relationships through the connections made and networking with the research community. These relationships built over the years have helped to build trust and sustain interest in future research, benefitting both the research teams and community members to seek solutions.
