项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Proposed is a Regional CNP located in Alameda County, California the home to one and a half million people and the most diverse county in the San Francisco Bay Area. It has large populations of Asian American (25%), Hispanic Americans (22%), African Americans (17%), and a decreasing Euro-American population (37%), and is the home of the largest group of Afghan refugees in the US. This county not only has diversity in its ethnic/racial composition but also a large population of persons who are uninsured or underinsured and of limited English proficiency. This is a population that is not reached through medical service settings. Therefore, we propose to reach them through their diverse faith communities. Aims: Using CBPR methods: 1) Develop and implement an Outreach Program based on updating assets/needs of the community through socio-demographic and health assessments, existing resources. 2) Conduct a full research project and pilot project (as a training tool). 3) Develop a Training Program to develop a cadre of community researchers using CBPR methods. Methods: 1) We will conduct an assets/needs assessment working with the community members through diverse faith communities by using existing data from the census, cancer registry, county surveys and will collect information on community resources (both educational materials and services) and will coordinate our efforts with the NCI. Using CBPR methods, we will involve community in deciding the directions for the Outreach Program. Two new programs are envisioned: Church socials & other events that focus on family history and the importance of biospecimen collection/clinical trials, and a faith based colorectal screening program to reduce the burden of cancer. 2) The Full Research proposed focuses on issues of literacy, low language proficiency, and cultural/religious issues in breast health among Afghan refugee women while the pilot focuses on use of churches for recruiting African American women and training them in advocacy skills to better navigate the health care system. 3) Our faculty for training are experienced in teaching about disparities at both the population and service level, CBPR, and grants writing. We are also experienced mentoring young researchers to become skilled in developing independent programs of CBPR research. Outcomes: Finally, both process and outcome evaluation will be used for all of the programs to improve them and to meet productivity benchmarks consistent with academic achievement.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的是位于加利福尼亚州阿拉米达县的区域CNP，是旧金山湾区一百万人口的房屋，是一百万人口的住所。它拥有大量亚裔美国人（25％），西班牙裔美国人（22％），非裔美国人（17％），欧美人口减少（37％），是美国最大的阿富汗难民的故乡。这个县不仅在其种族/种族组成方面具有多样性，而且没有投保人或保险不足并且英语能力有限的人群。这是通过医疗服务环境无法达到的人群。因此，我们建议通过他们多样化的信仰社区来吸引他们。目的：使用CBPR方法：1）基于社会人口统计学和健康评估，现有资源来更新社区的资产/需求，制定和实施外展计划。 2）进行完整的研究项目和试点项目（作为培训工具）。 3）制定培训计划，以使用CBPR方法来开发社区研究人员的干部。方法：1）我们将通过使用人口普查，癌症注册表，县调查的现有数据与社区成员进行资产/需求评估，并将收集有关社区资源（教育材料和服务）的信息，并将与NCI协调我们的努力。使用CBPR方法，我们将涉及社区决定外展计划的指示。设想了两个新的计划：教会社会和其他活动，这些活动侧重于家族史和生物测量收集/临床试验的重要性，以及基于信仰的结直肠筛查计划，以减轻癌症的负担。 2）拟议的全面研究重点介绍了阿富汗难民妇女乳房健康中识字，低语言水平和文化/宗教问题的问题，而飞行员则着重于使用教会招募非裔美国人妇女，并在倡导技能方面培训她们以更好地导航医疗保健系统。 3）我们的培训教师在人口和服务水平，CBPR和赠款写作方面的教学方面经验丰富。我们还经验丰富的指导年轻研究人员，可以熟练地制定独立的CBPR研究计划。结果：最后，所有计划都将使用过程和结果评估来改善它们并实现与学术成就一致的生产力基准。
