新奥尔良卡特里娜飓风的悲剧证实，有效实施公共卫生准备方案和政策将需要所有种族和民族人口的遵守。这项研究审查了目前的资源和限制，并提出了将不同社区纳入相关战略的未来方向。它记录了研究和干预措施，包括为少数群体做好准备的有希望的模式和做法。然而，调查结果显示，普遍缺乏对多样性的关注，并建议未来的准备工作需要充分整合与种族，文化和语言相关的因素到风险沟通，公共卫生培训，测量，协调和各级政策。
The tragedy of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans confirmed that effective implementation of public health preparedness programs and policies will require compliance from all racial and ethnic populations. This study reviews current resources and limitations and suggests future directions for integrating diverse communities into related strategies. It documents research and interventions, including promising models and practices that address preparedness for minorities. However, findings reveal a general lack of focus on diversity and suggest that future preparedness efforts need to fully integrate factors related to race, culture, and language into risk communication, public health training, measurement, coordination, and policy at all levels.
