• Improve health outcomes, client/patient experiences, effectiveness, and lower the cost of care within two or more of the TiC focus areas through identifying, evaluating and implementing evidence-based and/or effective interventions;
• Build novel multi-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary collaborations and partnerships with individuals, communities and organizations in Canada that have interest in transformative research in care transitions by promoting engagement, recognition and respect for health research expertise across an array of health disciplines, research pillars, and industry; and,
• Build and promote relevant transitions in care research capacity, including training and early career development by supporting teams that actively engage established researchers, new investigators, trainees, and knowledge users.
