Community Research Manager (CRM): is the key link between the study staff and the community. Responsibilities include: training and supervising the Community Researchers during the data collection period as well as coordinating the community mobilization activities.
Community Researcher (CR): community members who are hired and trained to recruit participants, administer survey questions as well as conduct interviews and group discussions.
Household Inspector (HI): community members who are hired and trained to conduct the home inspections, including home exteriors and interiors, administering survey questions, installing indoor air quality monitors and collecting house dust samples.
Community Advisory Circle: Members of the participating First Nation will form a committee to advise on all project matters. They will also be asked to reflect on the meaning of the results for their community and determine how the results can be best used to address important local health and environment issues.
The purpose of the advisory board is to bring unique leadership, knowledge and connections which augment the knowledge and skills of the FEHNCY Principal Investigators in order to more effectively guide the study in a way that is sensitive and attentive to the needs of First Nations people. The Advisory is made up of regional First Nations leaders and academics, including youth, government representatives, and representative FEHNCY PIs. The Board will meet twice a year.
