The overall goal of the Nutrition Intervention Core is to provide state-of-the-art resources and techniques to develop and evaluate nutritional interventions aimed at promoting health and preventing disease in populations at risk. The Core fills a critical gap in the existing resources available to CNRU faculty - the translation of science-based research on nutrition communication, health behavior, and communication theory, and intervention design and evaluation, into implementation and evaluation techniques that faculty members can use to develop more effective dietary interventions. The conduct of dietary intervention research in community and public health settings requires access to a variety of skills, instruments, and resources that are difficult to obtain from other sources in the University. Without access to these skills and resources, interventions may fail to achieve their objectives. Yet, developing and maintaining these resources independently are very difficult and costly for individual faculty. The major purpose of the Nutrition Intervention Core is to provide services to faculty that effectively and efficiently support the design and evaluation of state-of-the-art, theory-based dietary intervention research. The Nutrition Intervention Core facility is highly utilized and provides value-added functions to the CNRU because many of the faculty members require similar expertise and resources to design, develop, and track the effectiveness of their intervention studies. The Core also provides an invaluable grant development and writing resource for investigators developing NIH-funded proposals that require theory-based design and measures, innovative intervention components, or both. Through the Nutrition Intervention Core, CNRU investigators have access to intervention development and tracking tools, and receive help and consultation on the application of these tools specific to each project. In particular, the Nutrition Intervention Core has assisted investigators with theory selection and framework creation, web development, intervention design and materials development, behavioral research methods, and process evaluation. Consultation has also been provided to investigators to enable them to choose measures and approaches best suited to their nutrition research questions and goals. Finding the information and resources, maintaining the computers and software, and finding and keeping experienced staff can be expensive if each project does this on its own. In addition to the expertise and experience that the staff offers, the Core also facilitated a number of skill enhancing workshops and seminars.
