This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) will fund an experimental study of the Research-to-Policy Collaboration (RPC) model. The goal is to evaluate the RPC's ability to improve engagement between state policymakers and the research community, increase policymakers' awareness and value of research on child abuse and neglect (CAN) prevention, and ultimately increase the use of this research evidence in policymaking.

The $689,752 award will support a 5-year, state-level randomized controlled trial involving 30 state legislatures. The study aims to 1) assess historical and current use of research evidence in state legislation related to child protection policies, 2) compare engagement with CAN researchers and policymakers' perceptions of CAN research between intervention and control conditions, and 3) evaluate the RPC model's effectiveness at increasing legislators' actual use of research evidence in legislation. Improving the use of scientific evidence in policymaking has the potential to enhance the availability of evidence-based CAN prevention programs and policies, thereby reducing population-level child abuse and neglect.
