Closing the Treatment Gap with Implementation Science

A workshop from the CUNY Graduate School of Public Health and Health Policy (CUNY SPH) and the Center for Innovation in Mental Health at CUNY SPHClosing the Treatment Gap with Implementation ScienceOne of the most critical issues in public health across all disease areas the enormous gap between what we know can optimize health and what gets implemented in everyday practice. The science of dissemination and implementation (D&amp;I) seeks to address this gap by understanding how best to ensure that evidence-based strategies to improve health and prevent disease are effectively delivered in clinical and public health practice. This workshop will provide an overview of what D&amp;I Science offers, key models and theories, and how D&amp;I research addresses key questions needed to close the implementation gap. We will also go over evidence-based strategies such as community engagement, partnerships, etc. and challenges that are facing the field. There will be some time for Q&amp;A, and also an opportunity to brainstorm ideas for how your communities and organizations can engage in and benefit from community-engaged implementation science research and evaluation.
