The long-term goal of the University of Minnesota's (UMN) Center for Health Disparities Research, Engagement and Training (CeHDRET) is to create an informed, empowered and activated community that collaborates with researchers and practitioners to improve the health of their populations. Census data shows the state to be one of the fastest growing states - the total minority population rose from 6.3% in 1990 to 11.8% in 2000. The city of Minneapolis is more than 30% ethnic minorities. The Center will be comprised of four Cores: Administrative, Research, Research Training and Education, and Community Engagement and Outreach. We will support two research projects. Project 1, on minority health (MH), is a randomized intervention trial that will employ Community Health Workers and state-of-the-art biomarker feedback to encourage cessation and home smoking restriction among African American families. Project 2, on health disparities (HD), is a Medicare claims data analysis regarding disparities in chronic kidney disease. To maximize the likelihood of the endeavor's success, the Medical School is committing substantial resources to support this initiative: an initial $1 million, annually recurring $300,000, 8,000 sq ft of contiguous UMN office space, and 1,500 sq ft of new space in the Northside community for community-based research and programs. The University is committing an additional $100,000 in year 1, increased by the same amount each year, reaching a recurring $400,000 a year, beginning in year 4. The Center will build upon substantial successes we have already accomplished as part of our Program in Health Disparities, including our work in urban health and with African American populations, and will develop community partnerships and, overtime, new research programs with recent African immigrants and refugee populations. The vision is to become a national leader in health disparities and minority health research, serving as a resource for research training, community engagement, and research. Our Center aims are to: 1) Promote HD and MH research at UMN and our partners. 2) Strengthen our community partnerships to be leveraged to improve the health of minorities and new immigrants. 3) Integrate UMN's MH and HD resources into an easy-to-navigate, seamless infrastructure that fosters connections and communication across communities, academic disciplines, and institutional units. 4) Recruit, train and mentor students, fellows, faculty and future research leaders who are from underrepresented populations and/or wishing to conduct work in MH and HD.

明尼苏达大学（UMN）健康差异研究，参与和培训（CEHDRET）的长期目标是建立一个知情，有能力和激活的社区，与研究人员和从业人员合作，以改善其人口的健康。人口普查数据表明，该州是增长最快的州之一 - 少数民族总人口从1990年的6.3％上升到2000年的11.8％。明尼阿波利斯市为30％以上的少数民族。 该中心将由四个核心组成：行政，研究，研究培训和教育以及社区参与和外展。我们将支持两个研究项目。项目1，《少数民族健康》（MH）是一项随机干预试验，该试验将雇用社区卫生工作者和最先进的生物标志物反馈，以鼓励非裔美国人家庭停止和家庭吸烟限制。项目2，关于健康差异（HD），是有关慢性肾脏疾病差异的Medicare主张数据分析。为了最大化努力成功的可能性，医学院是 投入大量资源来支持这项倡议：最初的100万美元，每年经常出现300,000美元，8,000平方英尺的连续UMN办公空间，以及北区社区的1,500平方英尺的新空间，用于基于社区的研究和计划。该大学在第1年增加了100,000美元，每年增加了相同的数量，从4年开始就达到了每年40万美元的$ 400,000。该中心将基于我们在健康差异方面的一部分，包括我们在城市健康方面的工作，包括我们在城市健康方面的工作，并将与非裔美国人的人口以及将在非裔美国人中以及将与非洲裔美国人口一起取得成功，并将取得成功。 与最近的非洲移民和难民人群建立社区伙伴关系，并加班。 愿景是成为健康差异和少数民族健康研究领域的国家领导者，是研究培训，社区参与和研究的资源。 我们的中心目的是：1）在UMN及其合作伙伴中促进HD和MH研究。 2）加强我们的社区伙伴关系，以利用少数民族和新移民的健康。 3）将UMN的MH和HD资源整合到易于启动的无缝基础架构中，该基础架构促进了社区，学术学科和机构单位之间的联系和沟通。 4）招募，培训和导师的学生，研究员，教职员工和未来的研究领导者，他们来自代表性不足的人群和/或希望在MH和HD中进行工作。
