项目摘要

The overall goal of this Outreach Core is to provide the framework for cancer prevention and control activities to address the cancer health disparities found throughout New Mexico. New Mexico is a minority-dominated state, with a population that is 59% minority (46.3% Hispanic, 9.4% Native American, and 3% African American). New Mexico is home to a number of Native American tribes (e.g., Navajo, Mescalero Apache, Zuni, Jemez Pueblo) throughout the state and Hispanic border communities in its southwestern region. Several colonies, or rural areas lacking infrastructures and commodities such as city water, waste disposal, and paved roads, surround the state's border region. Health literacy levels are low, poverty and noninsurance rates are high, access to care is limited, and cancer morbidity and mortality is excessive among these underrepresented populations. Overall, minority populations in the state are underserved in terms of cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. A task of our Outreach Core is to increase community capacity to participate in cancer awareness, prevention, and control activities in NM. We will do this through community-based participatory research (CBPR) directed at translational interventions. Both Drs. Thompson and Palacios have extensive experience in working with communities. To build community capacity, it is important to have community partners empowered to collaborate with us. To ensure community participation in our activities, we will recruit individuals in the region to serve on a Community Advisory Board (CAB) to provide input and assistance in identifying community needs, capacities, and prospective collaborators. The CAB will consist of 12-18 members representing local Hispanic and Native American organizations or organizations that serve those populations. Dr. Beti Thompson, Core Leader from FHCRC, will lead this effort along with Dr. Rebecca Palacios, Core Leader from NMSU.

该外展核心的总体目标是为癌症预防和控制活动提供框架，以解决新墨西哥州各地发现的癌症健康差异。新墨西哥州是一个少数族裔占主导地位的州，59% 的人口为少数族裔（46.3% 为西班牙裔，9.4% 为美洲原住民，3% 为非裔美国人）。新墨西哥州是全州许多美洲原住民部落（例如纳瓦霍族、梅斯卡莱罗阿帕奇族、祖尼族、杰梅斯普韦布洛族）以及西南地区西班牙裔边境社区的家园。该州边境地区周围有几个殖民地或农村地区，缺乏城市供水、废物处理和铺设道路等基础设施和商品。在这些代表性不足的人群中，健康素养水平较低，贫困率和无保险率较高，获得护理的机会有限，癌症发病率和死亡率过高。总体而言，该州的少数族裔在癌症预防、诊断和治疗方面服务不足。我们外展核心的一项任务是提高社区参与新墨西哥州癌症意识、预防和控制活动的能力。我们将通过针对转化干预的基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）来做到这一点。两位博士。汤普森和帕拉西奥斯在与社区合作方面拥有丰富的经验。为了建设社区能力，重要的是让社区合作伙伴有权与我们合作。为了确保社区参与我们的活动，我们将招募该地区的个人担任社区咨询委员会 (CAB) 的成员，为确定社区需求、能力和潜在合作者提供意见和帮助。 CAB 将由 12 至 18 名成员组成，他们代表当地的西班牙裔和美洲原住民组织或为这些人群服务的组织。 FHCRC 核心领导人 Beti Thompson 博士将与 NMSU 核心领导人 Rebecca Palacios 博士一起领导这项工作。
