DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The "Community Approaches to Cardiovascular Health in Detroit" (CATCH) project will use a community based participatory research (CBPR) approach to reduce and ultimately eliminate health disparities in cardiovascular disease by improving heart health in Detroit, Michigan, a city in which 83% of residents are African American and 5% are Latino/a. CATCH is a project of the Healthy Environments Partnership (HEP), a partnership of several community-based organizations, health service providers and academic institutions that has been working together to identify relationships between inequalities and cardiovascular disease in Detroit since 2000. The work of HEP is guided by a Steering Committee composed of representatives from each of the partner organizations that operates in accordance with a set of CBPR principles adopted by the partnership. The Steering Committee has identified the need to expand the partnership to assess the factors associated with and develop strategies to address health disparities in Detroit. The aims of this project are to: 1) expand and maintain a community-based participatory research partnership, to strengthen the ability of the Detroit communities involved to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 2) implement a Community Assessment that engages community residents, community-based organizations, health and human service providers, academic researchers and policy and decision makers in Detroit's eastside, northwest and southwest areas to examine challenges, opportunities, and strategies to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 3) engage community residents, community-based organizations, hearth and human service providers, academic institutions and policy and decision makers in designing a Multilevel Intervention Plan to promote cardiovascular health among residents of eastside, northwest, and southwest Detroit to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 4) conduct and evaluate a multilevel (individual, organizational, community, and policy level) pilot intervention research study to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; and 5) evaluate the partnership process to gain an increased understanding of the successes, facilitating factors and barriers to using a CBPR approach to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：“底特律心血管健康社区方法”（CATCH）项目将采用基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）方法，通过改善密歇根州底特律的心脏健康来减少并最终消除心血管疾病的健康差异这座城市 83% 的居民是非裔美国人，5% 是拉丁裔美国人。 CATCH 是健康环境伙伴关系 (HEP) 的一个项目，该伙伴关系是由多个社区组织、卫生服务提供商和学术机构组成的伙伴关系，自 2000 年以来一直共同努力确定底特律不平等与心血管疾病之间的关系。 HEP 的工作由每个合作伙伴组织的代表组成的指导委员会指导，该委员会按照合作伙伴采用的一套 CBPR 原则运作。指导委员会已确定需要扩大合作伙伴关系，以评估与底特律健康差异相关的因素并制定解决底特律健康差异的战略。 该项目的目标是：1）扩大和维持以社区为基础的参与性研究伙伴关系，加强底特律社区减少并最终消除心血管疾病差异的能力； 2) 实施社区评估，让底特律东部、西北和西南地区的社区居民、社区组织、卫生和人类服务提供者、学术研究人员以及政策和决策者参与进来，研究挑战、机遇和减少并最终消除的战略心血管疾病的差异； 3) 让社区居民、社区组织、壁炉和公共服务提供者、学术机构以及政策和决策者参与设计多层次干预计划，以促进底特律东部、西北和西南部居民的心血管健康，从而减少并最终消除差异心血管疾病； 4）开展和评估多层次（个人、组织、社区和政策层面）试点干预研究，以减少并最终消除心血管疾病的差异； 5) 评估合作过程，以加深对使用 CBPR 方法减少并最终消除心血管疾病差异的成功、促进因素和障碍的了解。
