ACRP Ride for Diversity

Support the ACRP Ride for Diversity

A Road Trip for a Reason | May 15-20, 2022 | Pittsburgh to Washington, DC

DONATIONS TO DATE: $63,675*

What — Last year, more than 100 sponsors came together to fund the first-ever ACRP Ride for Diversity, a road trip for a reason—to raise funds for supporting the development of a diverse and research-ready workforce. Together, we raised almost $25,000!

Why — Research shows that the more diverse our clinical trial workforce, the more diverse clinical trial participation. Clinical studies need to reflect our real-world population—and a more diverse clinical research staff is an important way to make this change happen!

2022 Goal — This year, our team has set a goal of $50,000. We can achieve this with your help! Your donation will support the ACRP Workforce Development program called Ready, Set, Clinical Research™!

Who It Helps — 100% of ACRP Ride for Diversity donations are allocated for scholarships for entry-level clinical research professionals’ growth and development — through attendance at the ACRP annual conference, for example.

Meet the Riders

“ACRP’s vision is that clinical research is performed ethically, responsibly, and professionally everywhere in the world, and is committed to raising clinical research standards and accelerating the careers of people of all walks of life. It is important that ACRP take a stance in today’s society to push organizations conducting clinical trials to diversify their workforce because it is good for science, but more importantly because it’s good for mankind.”

— Sergio Armani, Vice President, Business Development, North America, Advarra

“Diversity in clinical trials is more important than ever as we grow and work together as a society to break down barriers that have held us back for decades. In clinical research, we need to make sure we have greater diversity in the workforce – the clinicians, nurses, and research staff who are face-to-face with potential patients – to fully realize our potential and to safely and ethically deliver new treatments to those in need.”
