This is a statewide stakeholder engagement event to consider opportunities for developing the Community Care Centers of Excellence (CCCE) program. The goal of the CCCE Program is to promote access to clinical trials and treatments arising from institute-funded research. As described in CIRM’s 5-year strategic plan, the CCCE program is envisioned to expand clinical research, increase patient access to therapies and grow the regenerative medicine workforce. 

This workshop is informed by a series of Listening Sessions and stakeholder discussions designed to understand the needs, capacities, and interests of stakeholders in the CCCE program. Drawing on this foundational knowledge derived from CIRM’s capacities and needs assessment; participants will be invited to consider ways the program can be designed to be responsive to the goal of promoting access to clinical trials and treatments. 

A major aim of this workshop is to consider how CIRM can invest to enable access to clinical research statewide, increase patient access though robust community engagement and, leverage education and training efforts to help build regenerative medicine’s future workforce.
