INSTRUCTIONS: SCRI will provide financial support for translation of assent/consent documents for non-English speaking pediatric subjects who might benefit by participating in an IRB-approved therapeutic trial. Except under special circumstances, institutional support of translation costs for non-therapeutic trials will not be provided. Under NO circumstances, will SCRI provide funding for translation costs associated with an industry sponsored project. If this is not a therapeutic trial, providing compelling evidence in the space below for why institutional support should be provided. Include in your argument how many non-English subjects you expect to enroll and indicate if exclusion of non-English speaking subjects will jeopardize the statistical significance of your study.
