Compelling evidence demonstrates racial/ethnic disparities in health and healthcare in the United States. These disparities arise from various factors including unequal access to adequate medical care, perceived racial discrimination, and poor health literacy.The Center for Healthful Behavior Change (CHBC) has been involved in numerous initiatives to eradicate health disparities and have implemented NIH-funded interventions to address inequities in health. Interventions targeting patient-centered outcomes have been suboptimal because of inadequate infrastructure to support equitable contributions from stakeholders (patients, providers, and community leaders) in all aspects of the research process. This is crucial to promote sustainable effects regarding minority patients' ability to make informed decisions about participating in existing clinical trials. This study will address this gap, bringing together academic investigators and important stakeholders to develop a website providing access to culturally tailored videos to enhance awareness of clinical trial, health literacy, thus promoting participation in existing clinical trials.
