2. Action catalysts are groups operating within partner organizations involved in action - e.g. implementing strategic plans.

3. Wellness catalysts are groups operating within partner organizations involved in patient/population advocacy.

Innovation Spaces are research-driven spaces in which universities and other stakeholders work together to develop and implement innovations to solve important problems. Innovation spaces may be organized at national levels, state levels, for at-risk populations and for various special topics.

Transformational Action Groups (TAGs) are sub-groups that develop and implement priority topics within an innovation space
