Complete DSAT Survey

Take the first step in improving the diversity of your site. Join Our Diverse Capable Site Network.

The #1 request we are hearing from Sponsors/CROs this year is around identification and access to sites that have racial and ethnically diverse patient populations. Total Diversity (TD) is building a diverse capable site network of research sites with access and interest in recruiting and enrolling diverse populations. Currently there are 250 sites in our network, all with various therapeutic capabilities.

There is no consequence to a lower score on the DSAT, so don’t be intimidated to complete it. TD has developed training around best practices for the recruitment and enrollment of diverse patient populations into a clinical trial to support sites with various levels of awareness and experience. Our goal is to support sites in applying these practices, improving your DSAT score, and being offered additional trial opportunities because of your new skills.

The first step to becoming part of TD diverse capable site network is to answer a few site profile and diversity metric questions and self-assess your site’s diversity awareness and current practices by completing the Diversity Site Assessment Tool (DSAT)* through Total Diversity. Once this is completed, TD will provide your DSAT score results so your site identify areas for improvement.

*Diversity Site Assessment Tool (DSAT) is a product developed by the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) Diversity initiative group.

**Must be completed in full at DSAT.info.
