项目摘要

Involvement with the criminal justice system, substance use, and infection with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are syndemic in the United States. Persons involved with the criminal justice (CJ) system are more likely to use substances, have comorbid mental health conditions, limited access to health care and health insurance, and have higher rates of HIV and HCV infection than the general population. Furthermore, incarcerated populations are also more likely to be racial and ethnic minorities and be economically and educationally disadvantaged. Research exploring these phenomena is insufficient. To address these disparities and increase the number and capacity of clinical scientists working with CJ populations, we established The Lifespan/Brown Criminal Justice Research Program on Substance Use and HIV (referred to as the CJRT) in 2014. Following a successful initial funding cycle during which we enrolled 22 scholars, we seek renewal funding to sustain this important and innovative training program. The CJRT program recruits an annual cohort of 4-5 scholars consisting of exceptionally qualified pre-doctoral, post-doctoral, and junior faculty researchers from the United States. The program is led by an experienced team of investigators from Brown University who collectively have several decades of experience conducting research among CJ-involved populations within local, national and international settings; and who have extensive mentoring experience with early career investigators. The mission of the CJRT program is to prepare scholars for independent NIH-funded clinical research careers focused on improving health outcomes related to substance use, HIV and HCV infection, and related co-morbidities among persons who are involved with the CJ system. The CJRT educational program is comprised of didactic education, mentored research, and experiential learning. CJRT scholars are enrolled for a two-year period and pursue research at their home institution under the guidance of both local and CJRT mentors. The program has the following three aims: 1) provide scholars with a solid foundation for clinical research related to CJ populations that includes skills in research methodology, scientific writing, grant writing, dissemination, and the ethics and practice of conducting research among vulnerable populations; 2) provide professional mentorship and guidance to support the career advancement of junior investigators; and 3) provide a mentored research experience including funds for pilot projects that provides a supportive pathway to research independence. For the next funding period, the CJRT program will highlight two new areas of training: 1) research related to the opioid crisis and overdose epidemic, given the public health urgency of this epidemic and direct relevance to CJ-populations; and 2) implementation science, given the need to effectively roll-out and expand access to evidence-based interventions for CJ-involved populations. Scientific guidance and program evaluation are strengthened by an Executive Committee and an External Advisory Committee.

参与刑事司法系统、药物滥用以及艾滋病毒和丙型肝炎病毒 (HCV) 感染在美国呈流行病。参与刑事司法 (CJ) 系统的人员更有可能使用物质，患有共病精神健康状况，获得医疗保健和健康保险的机会有限，以及艾滋病毒和丙型肝炎病毒感染率高于一般人群。此外，被监禁人口也更有可能是种族和族裔少数群体，并且在经济和教育上处于不利地位。探索这些现象的研究还不够。为了解决这些差异并增加数量和临床科学家与 CJ 群体合作的能力，我们建立了寿命/棕色罪犯 2014 年药物滥用和艾滋病毒司法研究计划（简称 CJRT）。成功的初始资助周期，在此期间我们招募了 22 名学者，我们寻求更新资金来维持这一点重要且创新的培训计划。 CJRT 项目每年招募 4-5 名学者由来自美国的非常合格的博士前、博士后和初级教师研究人员组成国家。该项目由布朗大学经验丰富的研究人员团队领导，他们共同拥有数十年对地方、国家和地区的 CJ 相关人群进行研究的经验国际环境；并且对早期职业调查员拥有丰富的指导经验。使命 CJRT 计划的目的是为学者们从事 NIH 资助的独立临床研究职业做好准备，重点关注改善与物质使用、HIV 和 HCV 感染以及相关共病相关的健康结果 CJ系统相关人员。 CJRT 教育计划包括教学教育、指导研究和体验式学习。 CJRT 学者注册期限为两年，并追求在当地和 CJRT 导师的指导下在其所在机构进行研究。该程序有以下三个目标：1）为学者们进行CJ人群相关的临床研究提供坚实的基础其中包括研究方法、科学写作、资助写作、传播以及伦理和道德方面的技能在弱势群体中开展研究的做法； 2）提供专业指导和指导支持初级研究者的职业发展； 3）提供指导性的研究经验包括为试点项目提供资金，为研究独立提供支持途径。对于接下来的资助期间，CJRT 计划将突出两个新的培训领域：1）与阿片类药物危机相关的研究考虑到这种流行病的公共卫生紧迫性以及与 CJ 人群的直接相关性，药物过量流行病； 2) 实施科学，考虑到有效推广和扩大基于证据的机会的需要对 CJ 相关人群的干预措施。加强科学指导和方案评估执行委员会和外部咨询委员会。
