Four pilot research projects submitted by VISN 4 investigators have been recommended for funding from the Center for Health Equity Research and Promotion (CHERP), a VA HSR&D Center of Innovation. These one-year projects focus on improving equity and/or quality in health and health care among Veterans. Awards are anticipated to begin in FY18, contingent upon availability of funding from VISN4.
