PROJECT SUMMARY A critical component of impactful health equity research is involving and mentoring academic and community researchers from diverse backgrounds, particularly those with lived experience related to the structural inequities and health disparities we aim to eliminate. The proposed DEIA Mentorship Supplement builds on our parent study that tests the effectiveness of three nested levels of intervention to reduce disparate adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic (psychological distress, daily stressors, and economic precarity) and increase protective factors (social support, critical awareness of/access to resources, English proficiency, cultural connectedness, and mental health service use) among Latinx and Black immigrants and refugees. Our community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach emphasizes collaborative knowledge generation, which ensures our research is rigorous, innovative, responsive, and equity-focused. Resources to expand and create a mentorship structure that builds on the strengths of bilingual newcomers and children of newcomers who want to become biomedical and social science health researchers will advance our research impact. We propose an anti-oppressive, co-learning, multi-tiered mentoring model that we will assess, sustain, and disseminate. Our outstanding team includes co-mentors involved in the parent study and a group of extremely promising mentees at multiple levels who want to become health equity researchers. An important innovation is our inclusion of not only graduate students but also project staff and community partner mentees who want to enter graduate and/or medical school, but who have not had the opportunity to pursue a typical professional trajectory because of needing to work to support themselves and their families and other issues related to newcomer experiences. The supplement would advance our research and mentoring activities (and health equity research more broadly) through three aims: 1) formalize and implement anti-oppressive, team-based, co-learning mentoring processes for student, staff, and community mentees to engage in structured research mentorship, career path mentoring, and wellness support; 2) leverage the parent study quantitative and qualitative data to conduct mentee-led mixed methods analyses of emerging research questions not related to intervention impacts; and 3) improve dissemination of parent study and proposed supplement research findings through additional peer-reviewed manuscripts, innovative bilingual multimedia materials for community partners and members, and team conference presentations to maximize impact. One of the strengths of the mentee team who have lived experiences as newcomers or children of newcomers is that they have innovative and culturally grounded ideas for asking research questions that are most relevant to their communities and disseminating the results in novel, bilingual formats that are usable and accessible to their communities. In sum, the proposed research and mentoring plan will provide critical opportunities for enhancing the impact of the parent grant and advancing our research.

项目概要 有影响力的健康公平研究的一个重要组成部分是学术界和社区的参与和指导 来自不同背景的研究人员，特别是那些具有与结构相关的生活经验的研究人员 我们旨在消除不平等和健康差距。拟议的 DEIA 指导补充协议建立在我们的基础上 家长研究测试了三层嵌套干预措施的有效性，以减少不同的不利影响 COVID-19 大流行的影响（心理困扰、日常压力和经济不稳定）以及 增加保护因素（社会支持、对资源的批判意识/获取资源、英语水平、 拉丁裔和黑人移民和难民之间的文化联系和心理健康服务的使用）。我们的 基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）方法强调协作知识生成， 这确保了我们的研究严谨、创新、反应灵敏且注重公平。资源扩展和 创建一个基于双语新移民和新移民子女优势的导师结构 希望成为生物医学和社会科学健康研究人员的人将提高我们的研究影响力。我们 提出一种反压迫、共同学习、多层次的指导模式，我们将对其进行评估、维持和 传播。我们优秀的团队包括参与家长研究的共同导师和一群极其优秀的人 希望成为健康公平研究人员的多层次有前途的学员。一项重要的创新 我们不仅包括研究生，还包括项目工作人员和社区合作伙伴受训者 进入研究生院和/或医学院，但没有机会追求典型的专业 由于需要工作来养活自己和家人以及与此相关的其他问题 新人经历。该补充剂将促进我们的研究和指导活动（以及健康 更广泛的公平研究）通过三个目标：1）正式化并实施反压迫、基于团队、 为学生、教职员工和社区受训者提供参与结构化研究的共同学习指导流程 指导、职业道路指导和健康支持； 2）利用家长研究的定量和 定性数据，用于对与以下领域无关的新兴研究问题进行由学员主导的混合方法分析 干预影响； 3) 改善家长研究和拟议补充研究的传播 通过额外的同行评审手稿、社区创新双语多媒体材料得出的结论 合作伙伴和成员以及团队会议演示，以最大限度地发挥影响力。该公司的优势之一 受训者团队有新人或新人子女的生活经历，他们有创新精神 以及提出与他们的社区和社区最相关的研究问题的基于文化的想法 以社区可用且可获取的新颖的双语格式传播研究结果。在 总之，拟议的研究和指导计划将为增强影响力提供重要机会 家长资助并推进我们的研究。
