Veteran participation in the All of Us Research Program: applying an intersectionality lens to evaluate participant diversity

The use of a broad spectrum of engagement approaches was shown to be successful for reaching a more diverse Veteran base, and complex intersectional identities among Veterans are described. Greater understanding of intersectionality and its significance to representation can bolster the adaptation of Veteran engagement methodology in research and broader healthcare settings.

Abstract

The use of a broad spectrum of engagement approaches was shown to be successful for reaching a more diverse Veteran base, and complex intersectional identities among Veterans are described. Greater understanding of intersectionality and its significance to representation can bolster the adaptation of Veteran engagement methodology in research and broader healthcare settings.
