CRISPfacts is a series of newsletter summaries highlighting key messages from the findings of our Raising and Levelling the Bar collaborative research program. CRISPfacts provide timely, informative and readable research “bits” to members of the larger community who could be directly affected by our research results and whose support and influence will be necessary to implement changes based on the research. They are equally useful to school principals, teachers, health-care professionals, parents, and other individuals and groups concerned with the well-being of Canadian children and adolescents. You can receive CRISPfacts by subscribing to our CRISP distribution list and we encourage our readers to “copy and paste” these summaries directly into newsletters, school papers, or any other publication suitable for this type of content.
