Abstract Texas Southern University (TSU) has a long history of implementing community engagement outreach efforts addressing health disparities through established partnerships and collaborations with healthcare systems, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and community-based organizations (CBOs). However, these efforts are siloed among faculty, staff, and student organizations thus depriving us and most importantly the community, of the unique opportunity to leverage the strengths of all of our CBOs, FQHCs, and healthcare system collaborators to effectively identify and address the health-related concerns of the Greater Houston Community (GHC) Underrepresented Minorities (URMs) and increase URM research awareness and participation. We propose to develop a Community Engagement Core (CEC) within the Center for Biomedical Minority Health Research (CBMHR) that will leverage TSU’s many longstanding partnerships and collaborations with CBOs, healthcare systems, and FQHCs as well as its unique relationship with the URM community. The CEC will develop innovative programs that will integrate existing yet siloed community engagement efforts across TSU. We will identify the health-related concerns of GHC URMs through surveys conducted by our healthcare systems, FQHC, and CBO partners as well as community individuals and CBO partners’ feedback. We will address health concerns through health education seminars (topics based on health-related concerns of GHC URMs) and also provide guidance for navigating the vast healthcare infrastructure (including available financial assistance programs). Clinical research education forums aimed at building trust and reducing barriers to participation in clinical trials among GHC URMs will be implemented in collaboration with our healthcare system partners in the Texas Medical Center. We will also host research outcomes conferences to promote the outcomes of TSU’s biomedical research endeavors in lay-language to facilitate the awareness of research findings among the GHC URMs. Relevant information will be obtained through the concurrent development of databases that will exist as an information “hub” for community resources consisting of up-to-date comprehensive lists of all community-engagement outreaches and activities at TSU and our CBO partners as well as comprehensive lists of community organizations and partners such as FQHCs, Healthcare systems, Charity Clinics, Specialty Service Centers, Multi-service Community Centers, governmental and non- governmental organizations, profit and non-profit organizations, as well as school districts serving the GHC URM. We will use various social and mass media outlets to ensure awareness of CEC’s activity among the GHC. The goals of CEC align with the mission, vision, and values of TSU with regards to collaboration, partnership, community and engagement. Overall, we are convinced that the CEC will be very impactful in bridging the health disparity gaps for URMs in GHC.

抽象的 德克萨斯州南部大学（TSU）在实施社区参与外展工作方面有着悠久的历史 通过建立的合作伙伴关系和与医疗保健系统的合作来解决健康分配， 联邦资格卫生中心（FQHC）和基于社区的组织（CBO）。但是，这些 在教师，教职员工和学生组织中孤立的努力，因此剥夺了我们，最重要的是 社区，是一个独特的机会，可以利用我们所有CBO，FQHC和医疗保健的优势 系统合作者有效地识别并解决了大休斯顿的与健康有关的关注 社区（GHC）代表性不足的少数民族（URM），并提高URM研究意识和 参与。 我们建议在生物医学少数族裔健康中心内开发社区参与核心（CEC） 研究（CBMHR）将利用TSU与CBO的许多长期合作伙伴关系和合作 医疗保健系统和FQHC以及其与URM社区的独特关系。 CEC会 开发创新计划，这些计划将整合TSU的现有但孤立的社区参与工作。 我们将通过我们的医疗保健调查确定GHC URMS与健康相关的问题 系统，FQHC和CBO合作伙伴以及社区个人和CBO合作伙伴的反馈。我们将 通过健康教育中心解决健康问题（基于GHC与健康相关的问题的主题 URMS），还为导航庞大的医疗基础设施提供指导（包括可用的财务 协助计划）。旨在建立信任并减少障碍的临床研究教育论坛 将与我们的医疗保健系统合作实施GHC URMS之间的临床试验 德克萨斯医疗中心的合作伙伴。我们还将举办研究成果会议，以促进 TSU生物医学研究的结果努力促进研究的意识 GHC URM中的发现。相关信息将通过并发的开发获得 将作为信息“集线器”存在的数据库，用于由最新的社区资源 TSU和我们的CBO合作伙伴的所有社区参与宣传和活动的全面清单 以及FQHC，医疗保健系统等社区组织和合作伙伴的全面清单， 慈善诊所，专业服务中心，多服务社区中心，政府和非 - 政府组织，利润和非营利组织以及为GHC URM服务的学区。 我们将使用各种社会和大众媒体来确保对CEC在GHC中的活动的认识。 CEC的目标与TSU的使命，愿景和价值观保持一致，以协作，合作伙伴关系， 社区和参与。总体而言，我们坚信CEC在弥合健康方面将非常有影响力 GHC中URMS的差异差距。
