About Research Participation

"The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) works to protect the rights, welfare, and well-being of volunteers who participate in research supported by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). One way to further this mission is to provide the public with basic information about research and research participation, so potential volunteers can make informed decisions about participating in research. You can find the About Research Participation materials for potential participants, please visit the OHRP website below where you may find neutral and helpful information about research." (OHRP, 2020) 

The resources are available in both English and Spanish.
