Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To describe the development and approach of a Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) core created within the Military Suicide Research Consortium, a funding consortium of the Department of Defense, to promote the D&I of findings from funded research. Approach: The approach of the D&I Core is described as it developed over the past four years and how it relates to the larger D&I scientific and military context.

RESULTS: The paper describes several initiatives of the MSRC D&I Core including the development of integrated clinical and implementation outcome summaries and action briefs to facilitate researchers communicating their intervention and its empirical support to stakeholders. The MSRC Dissemination Science Institute, developed to integrate military and dissemination science experts with suicide prevention researchers from military, veteran and civilian organizations is described.

CONCLUSIONS: Several important considerations for D&I of new scientific findings by research funding organizations are discussed. © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
