EmVenio builds personal connections at community kidney walks

Community connection and trust are major components of any successful clinical trial. At EmVenio, we focus on building genuine, lasting relationships in the communities we serve – bridging the gap between people and science.  Our teams create these connections through approachable conversations with community members and intentional partnerships with local leaders and public health advocates.

Recently, our team participated in kidney walks in Atlanta, Kansas City, and Dallas to raise awareness about kidney health and share how we’re improving access to clinical research.

Our presence at each walk included Certified Mobile Research Clinicians, site staff, and team members from clinician assignment, recruitment, fleet, marketing, and project management. Together, they welcomed community members, answered questions, and explained how clinical research supports long-term health outcomes and how community-based research makes clinical trial participation more accessible.

Our Certified Mobile Research Clinicians played a key role by meeting attendees one-on-one, explaining how clinical studies work and sharing details about EmVenio’s mobile visits, site network, and upcoming research opportunities – helping raise awareness about research and how it fits into everyday care.

 Across all three cities, the kidney walks showcased how community engagement and teamwork create meaningful impact. We connected attendees to A1C testing, health screenings, and our clinic database, helping them stay informed about future research opportunities. Here are some standout moments:

It’s inspiring to see our mission come to life in the community and create opportunities for education and connection.
