DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The number of Latinos in the five-state WWAMI region (Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho) has increased significantly over the last three decades such that Latinos are now the largest and fastest growing minority group in the region. In 2011, there were more than one million Latinos living in the WWAMI region. Unfortunately, there is a lack of research addressing the most important health problems facing this population. To address this gap, the Community Outreach Research Translation (CORT) core of the Institute for Translational Health Sciences (ITHS) at the University of Washington is proposing a two day conference titled, "Latino Health Research, Practice and Policy: Identifying our Strengths and Growing our Collaborations." The overall goal of this conference is fostering new community-engaged research along three broad themes: behavioral health, chronic illness treatment and prevention, and health policy. The specific aims of the conference are: Aim 1: To provide a forum for the exchange of knowledge, professional networking for the purpose of developing new community-engaged research collaborations focused on the health of Hispanic communities in the WWAMI region. To address this aim, the conference will include: (1) Keynote presentations by regional leaders of community-based organizations, leading Hispanic health scholars, and government policy makers; and (2) Small group discussion sessions among community-based organization leaders, academic investigators, health care providers, and government policy makers. Aim 2: To publish conference proceedings that identify specific opportunities for research collaborations grounded in the views of conference participants in three thematic areas: behavioral health, chronic illness prevention and treatment, and health policy - all focused on Latino communities in the WWAMI region. Aim 3: To create a website for the dissemination of the conference proceedings and to foster ongoing communication among conference participants. The website will provide an archive including videos of keynote presentations, speakers' slides, conference evaluations, and a wiki that allows user to read and post comments and questions. The conference organizing committee consists of a diverse group of individuals from leading research institutions, academia, Latino-serving community-based organizations, and policy makers from the WWAMI region. Invited conference participants will include Latino community members, academic investigators interested in engaging with Latino communities, and health policy makers from throughout the WWAMI region. The proposed conference will be held at the University of Washington's South Lake Union Facilities located in Seattle, WA in early 2014.

描述（由申请人提供）：在过去的三十年中，五州WWAMI地区（华盛顿，怀俄明州，阿拉斯加，蒙大拿州和爱达荷州）的拉丁美洲人数已大大增加，因此拉丁美洲人现在是该地区最大，增长最快的少数民族。 2011年，二战地区有超过一百万的拉丁美洲人居住。不幸的是，缺乏解决该人群面临的最重要健康问题的研究。为了解决这一差距，华盛顿大学转化健康科学研究所（ITHS）的社区外展研究翻译（CORT）核心正在提议为期两天的会议，标题为“拉丁裔健康研究，实践和政策：确定我们的优势并发展我们的合作。”这次会议的总体目标是促进新的社区参与研究，并以三个广泛的主题：行为健康，慢性病治疗和预防以及健康政策。会议的具体目的是：目标1：为了建立针对WWAMI地区西班牙裔社区健康的新的社区参与研究合作的目的，提供一个知识交流，专业网络的论坛。为了解决这一目标，会议将包括：（1）基于社区组织的区域领导人，领导西班牙裔卫生学者和政府政策制定者的主题演讲； （2）基于社区的组织领导者，学术研究人员，卫生保健提供者和政府政策制定者之间的小组讨论会议。目标2：发布会议记录，以确定以三个主题领域的会议参与者的观点为基础的研究合作机会：行为健康，预防慢性病和治疗以及卫生政策 - 所有这些都集中在第二次世界大战地区的拉丁裔社区。目标3：创建一个网站，以传播会议记录并促进会议参与者之间的持续沟通。该网站将提供一个档案，包括主题演示文稿，扬声器幻灯片，会议评估以及Wiki的视频，该视频允许用户阅读和发布评论和问题。会议组织委员会由来自领先的研究机构，学术界，拉丁裔服务社区组织以及来自WWAMI地区的政策制定者的一群人组成。受邀的会议参与者将包括拉丁裔社区成员，有兴趣与拉丁裔社区互动的学术调查人员以及来自世界第二次世界大战地区的卫生政策制定者。拟议的会议将于2014年初在华盛顿州西雅图的华盛顿大学南湖联合设施举行。
