项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this project is to establish a partnership, related to maternal and child health, between the University of Pittsburgh and local community organizations to: (1) establish an Advisory Board consisting of both University researchers and community organizations; (2) provide health information to community members about issues that affect African Americans; (3) to get a better understanding of what community members believe are the most important health issues for research investigators to study; (4) to develop a formal agreement (Memorandum of Understanding/ MOU) with University faculty members who have previous experience in conducting Community-based Participatory Research with local community organizations so that we can learn from them; and (5) to develop a MOU with at least one local community organization interested in partnering with the University to conduct a Community- Based Participatory Research (CBPR) project related to maternal and child health. As a research team, we are most interested in maternal and child health issues such as intimate partner violence during pregnancy and postpartum; the impact of intimate partner violence on women's reproductive health and pregnancy outcome; and intimate partner violence associated with unintended pregnancy. However, we are also very interested in hearing what community members believe are the important issues in this area as well as what other health issues they believe should be priorities for research investigation. What further strengthens this project, in addition to the partnership with community organizations, is that it builds on years of community engagement by the Center for Minority Health and a strong relationship between the Graduate School of Public Health (GSPH) and the Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD).

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的目的是建立与匹兹堡大学与地方社区组织之间的与母性和儿童健康有关的伙伴关系：（1）建立由大学研究人员和社区组织组成的顾问委员会；（2）向社区成员提供有关影响非裔美国人的问题的健康信息；（3）更好地了解社区成员认为是研究研究者最重要的健康问题；（4）与具有以前在与当地社区组织进行社区参与性研究经验的大学教职员工建立正式协议（谅解备忘录/谅解备忘录），以便我们可以向他们学习；（5）与至少有一个有兴趣与大学合作开展社区参与性研究（CBPR）项目的本地社区组织开发谅解备忘录。作为一个研究团队，我们对孕产妇和儿童健康问题最感兴趣，例如怀孕和产后亲密伴侣暴力行为；亲密伴侣暴力对妇女生殖健康和妊娠结局的影响；以及与意外怀孕有关的亲密伴侣暴力行为。但是，我们也非常有兴趣听到社区成员认为是该领域的重要问题，以及他们认为应该是研究调查的其他健康问题。除了与社区组织的合作伙伴关系外，还进一步加强了该项目的原因是，它建立在少数民族健康中心多年的社区参与以及公共卫生研究生院（GSPH）与阿勒格尼县卫生部（ACHD）之间建立的牢固关系。
