The guidelines for the ACT Research Grants Program are designed to ensure that we achieve the CTKC’s vision to harness the knowledge of leaders including clients, decision-makers, care providers and researchers to transform and promote a unique client-focused health care experience. Additionally, the guidelines reinforce the need for a strong commitment to develop and execute a knowledge utilization and exchange plan to profile and transfer the project findings and implications during the project and after its completion. Building capacity within your organization, the broader community and health care system are important tenants of our program to ensure the impact will be sustained. This will include thoughtful consideration and plans for how the findings from the project can be put into action in the successful applicant’s organization or replicated in collaboration with others.
