The field of implementation science seeks to systematically close the gap between what we know and what we do (often referred to as the know-do gap) by identifying and addressing the barriers that slow or halt the uptake of proven health interventions and evidence-based practices. Implementation science differs from intervention research in that it focuses on the strategies used to implement evidence-based practices, rather than on intervention effectiveness.Learning Objectives: During this learning experience, the ORISE fellow will:Engage researchers from the PRCs and practitioners from State and Territorial Chronic Disease Units (CDUs).Review and prioritize existing translation models that can be useful in guiding the PRC’s translation work including a model developed by CDC and the National Association of Chronic Disease DirectorsDevelop and promote examples of translation model elements in actionDevelop, refine, and share research and practice tools that can be used to enhance dissemination and implementation of PRC evidence-based interventions (EBls).Participate in the development of a dissemination and implementation toolkit will include: 1) a list of existing translation models from the literature, 2) guidance, such as “how to” instructions and / or reflection prompts to support decision making, 3) and tools (such as planning templates, communication templates, practitioner distribution lists, partnership tracking tools, etc.) to advance dissemination and translation of PRC EBIs.Serve as a resource and support the CDC PRC Program by providing dissemination, translation, and implementation subject expertise in programmatic decisions.Mentor(s): The mentor for this opportunity is LaShaun Polk (lop6@cdc.gov).

Individually, these concepts enhance the Army's ability to create cohesive teams, which is integral to building trust at all levels; collectively, they leverage the strength of our people, advance opportunity, and optimize talent. These concepts enable the Army to fight and win our Nation's wars. As an integral part of that mission, the Army must protect our own employees from unlawful discrimination, harassment, and retaliation to ensure continued success.This equal employment opportunity (EEO) policy statement is a reminder that all Army employees are protected from unlawful discrimination. Army employees and applicants for employment are covered by Federal laws and Presidential Executive Orders designed to safeguard them from discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), parental status, national origin, age, disability, genetic information (family medical history), political affiliation, military service, or other non-merit-based factors. These protections extend to all management practices and employment decisions, including recruitment and hiring, performance appraisals, promotions, training, and career development programs. Consistent with these obligations, the Army provides reasonable accommodations to employees and applicants for functional limitations caused by disabilities, and for sincerely held religious beliefs, observances, and practices.Army employees and applicants are also protected against retaliation. Consistent with Federal laws, acts of retaliation against an employee or applicant who engages in protected activity, such as reporting discrimination or harassment or participating in the EEO process, will not be tolerated. The Army will take prompt action if an employee or applicant is subjected to workplace discrimination, retaliation, or harassment (including sexual harassment).We must be diligent in maintaining a workplace free from discrimination. This includes working to ensure that harassment, on any protected basis, does not occur within our Army. Army managers and supervisors play a critical role and have a responsibility to help prevent and eliminate harassment in the workplace, and all employees have a duty not to engage in harassing conduct and to report any such conduct if it occurs. Army employees or applicants who believe that they have been subjected to discrimination, harassment, or retaliation should contact their local EEO office.It is incumbent upon all of us to ensure that the Army is a model employer and serves as an example of equity and inclusiveness for all workplaces, within and outside the Federal government. Likewise, each of us must take responsibility for implementing the Army's EEO policy and cooperating fully in its enforcement. In so doing, we reaffirm our collective commitment to a work environment free from unlawful discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.Christine E. WormuthSecretary of the Army
