During the AHRQ-funded grant (2014-2020) that established the ENACT Network, operational and strategic decisions were made by the PI and co-directors in consultation with the Leadership Circle, which included site representatives from all partnering institutions, the 22 ENACT Fellows (who completed the one-year experiential training), and an internal advisory group from the University of Pittsburgh. After the completion of the AHRQ-funded period, and after the first annual ENACT Face-to-Face Meeting (in Puerto Rico, February 1, 2020), the Leadership Circle was restructured as a smaller Steering Committee (SC), with greater representation from the partnering institutions to facilitate a more bi-directional collaboration. The SC subsequently began bi-monthly meetings in Fall, 2020 with the goals of 1) writing manuscripts on different aspects of the ENACT Network programs, 2) developing and writing funding proposals to build a more sustainable capacity for conducting CER and PCOR, and 3) discuss other agenda items of common interest to the Network
