VALUES We believe that: - All people have the right to high quality, community-based health care - Practicing in a community-based health care center is a desirable, viable long-term career choice for clinicians - Practice-based research should be relevant, practical and timely - Research at the community-based health care center level supports the dissemination, adoption and implementation of new knowledge, resulting in sustained high quality of care, increasing health equity, and the improvement of public health. The combined patient and clinician populations of CDN?s member community-based health care centers represent an enormous opportunity for our practice-based research network (PBRN). Mission: We are a network that supports community-based health care centers, including their patients, practitioners and organizations. A community-based health care center is one that is committed to improving the overall health of individuals, families and communities by focusing on their primary medical, dental and/or behavioral well-being. We exist to advocate for meeting the health needs of underserved populations, while providing access to high quality health care, and greater social justice for all. We exist to provide peer support: ?1. By conducting practice-based research and translation of research into practice through training, education and the development of new models of care 2.
