Community Advisory Groups (CAGs)

Community Advisory Groups (CAGs) are committees composed of local residents and stakeholders who collaborate with organizations or researchers to provide input, feedback, and guidance on projects or initiatives affecting their community. They serve as a bridge, ensuring that community concerns, needs, and perspectives are considered in decision-making processes. CAGs help foster trust, improve the relevance of programs, and promote transparency by actively involving community members in shaping outcomes that impact their daily lives.
