Compare the use of ACL reconstruction and physical therapy in Black and White people and people with different socioeconomic status after ACL injury. Black people and people with lower socioeconomic status are at higher risk of long-term disability related to arthritis that is common after ACL injury. The above treatments may reduce long-term disability, but use of these treatments may be different across racial and socioeconomic groups. The project will also look at factors related to treatment use in Black people with ACL injury. Identifying these factors will help us figure out how to improve treatment use in Black people, who are often underrepresented in clinical research. *This study is a collaboration with the UNC Sports Medicine Institute*

The purpose of this study is to develop a strategy that increases the readiness of high school coaches to implement ACL injury prevention programs with their teams.

Research study to prevent and reduce exposure to contaminated private well drinking water. Once participants provide consent, project staff administer a survey of prior well testing behavior, online or on paper. All consented participants who complete the survey receive a well test kit (via US mail or in person), which includes instructions, bottles, and an information sheet that requires participants to provide name / address and confirm they have followed recommended sampling protocol. Participants return samples to project staff, who will deliver samples to the UNC Superfund Research Program lab in the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health. Once samples have been processed, project staff develop report-back letters and share results with participants. Within 3-6 months of results being provided, project staff will send an electronic or paper evaluation survey to participants, to document any water treatment actions and understand participant recall of test results and satisfaction with study participation.
