PROJECT SUMMARY: American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) students are the least likely of any minoritized group to complete a bachelor’s degree and bachelors, masters, and doctoral degree attainment has remained the same or decreased since 2000 in both STEM and non-STEM fields. This is despite AI/AN communities facing some of the largest disparities in health outcomes, thus justifying a critical need to train more AI/AN health scientists to improve health equity. The CA- NARCH SDP was established in 2003 and is a partnership between Indian Health Council (IHC), serving 9 regional tribes, and the academic partners of San Diego State University (SDSU), University of California San Diego (UCSD), California Sate University- San Marcos (CSUSM), and Palomar Community College (PCC). The CA-NARCH SDP has significantly addressed gaps in AI/AN academic achievement and has supported 135 students, with 97% being retained in their STEM programs over its 17 year history. Thus far, 10 students have received a PhD, with 18 additional students currently in PhD programs. 28 students have completed masters degrees, and 15 are currently in masters programs. Students are dedicated to working in Indian County and 17 students currently have full time positions in Indian Country; Two students have thus far become faculty members at 4 year universities. The aims of the CA-NARCH SDP include: 1) Identify and recruit AI/AN students in the biomedical and behavioral sciences from community college through graduate school into the CA-NARCH SDP program; 2) Retain AI/AN students in their respective higher education programs and develop and enhance their knowledge, skills, science-self efficacy, and persistence to succeed in STEM programs to successfully matriculate into graduate programs; 3) Engage and provide training for AI/AN students in biomedical and health research to increase their competitiveness for jobs/graduate school and their likelihood of becoming health/science researchers; 4) Increase the cultural interface and competencies of the CA-NARCH students and encourage AI/AN community engagement and trust in research. Centered at IHC, the CA-NARCH SDP has established infrastructure with a SDP team, including a full-time native coordinator (Luiseño), and an established presence and leads on the 4 surrounding campuses. Students are recruited from the 4 campuses, AI/AN organizations, faculty directors of NIH and NSD funded science enrichment programs, and from local tribes. Retention methods are multiple and include engaging students in research through existing NIH and NSF funded program, the CA-NARCH Directed Research (CANDR) program with campus and community based research, and in summer and yearlong research programs. Students receive continual mentorship from the CA NARCH SDP team, develop individual development plans, and will be assigned a cultural mentor who will provide additional guidance to students. Students will all participate in workshops and seminars that will enhance their science skills, provide training in indigenous research methods and that will expose students to established AI/AN researchers working in AI/AN communities. Cultural interface and community trust in research is enhanced by CA-NARCH SDP team and student presentations at community events and through cultural days. Evaluation of the program includes quantitative and qualitative measures and serves to assess program success and enhancement.

项目概要： 美洲印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民 (AI/AN) 学生是所有少数群体中完成学业的可能性最小的。 自此以来，学士学位以及学士、硕士和博士学位的获得率保持不变或有所下降 尽管 AI/AN 社区在 STEM 和非 STEM 领域都面临着一些最大的差异，但 2000 年还是如此。 健康结果，从而证明迫切需要培训更多的 AI/AN 健康科学家以改善健康公平。 NARCH SDP 成立于 2003 年，是印度卫生委员会 (IHC) 之间的合作伙伴关系，为 9 个地区提供服务 部落以及圣地亚哥州立大学 (SDSU)、加州大学圣地亚哥分校 (UCSD) 的学术合作伙伴， 加州州立大学圣马科斯分校 (CSUSM) 和帕洛玛社区学院 (PCC) 拥有 CA-NARCH SDP。 显着解决了 AI/AN 学术成就方面的差距，并为 135 名学生提供了支持，其中 97% 的学生保留在 他们的 STEM 项目已有 17 年的历史，迄今为止，已有 10 名学生获得了博士学位，另外还有 18 名学生。 目前有28名学生已完成硕士学位，15名学生正在攻读硕士学位。 学生致力于在印第安县工作，目前有 17 名学生在印第安县担任全职职位； 迄今为止，已有两名学生成为四年制大学的教员。 CA-NARCH SDP 的目标包括： 1) 识别并招募从社区大学到研究生的生物医学和行为科学领域的 AI/AN 学生 学校加入 CA-NARCH SDP 计划； 2) 将 AI/AN 学生保留在各自的高等教育计划中； 发展和增强他们的知识、技能、科学自我效能以及在 STEM 项目中取得成功的毅力 成功入读研究生课程；3) 为 AI/AN 学生提供生物医学和生物医学方面的培训； 健康研究，以提高他们在工作/研究生院的竞争力以及他们成为健康/科学的可能性 4) 增加 CA-NARCH 学生的文化交流和能力，并鼓励 AI/AN CA-NARCH SDP 建立了以 IHC 为中心的基础设施和对研究的信任。 SDP 团队，包括一名全职本地协调员 (Luiseño)，以及在 4 个周边地区的固定存在和领导 学生是从 4 个校区、AI/AN 组织、NIH 和 NSD 资助的教职主任中招募的。 科学丰富项目和当地部落的保留方法有多种，包括让学生参与其中。 通过现有的 NIH 和 NSF 资助的项目、CA-NARCH 定向研究 (CANDR) 项目进行研究 校园和社区研究，以及夏季和全年的研究项目。 CA NARCH SDP 团队的指导，制定个人发展计划，并将被分配文化 将为学生提供额外指导的导师。学生将全部参加研讨会和研讨会。 提高他们的科学技能，提供本土研究方法的培训，并使学生接触到既定的研究方法 在 AI/AN 社区工作的 AI/AN 研究人员可以通过以下方式增强文化交流和社区对研究的信任。 CA-NARCH SDP 团队和学生在社区活动和文化日中进行演示。 计划包括定量和定性措施，用于评估计划的成功和改进。
