This application proposes an interdisciplinary Center for Latino Health Research Opportunities (CLaRO), with the unifying theme of conducting and promoting multi-level community-based participatory research to prevent SAVA syndemic conditions (substance abuse, violence/trauma and HIV/AIDS) and reduce their adverse health and mental health consequences. The emphasis of the Center will be on tailored interventions for Latino subgroups who represent pockets of vulnerability and require precise and specialized interventions that optimize access to and impact of interventions. CLaRO will unite and advance the work undertaken during the past decade by two NIMHD Centers of Excellence: the P60 Center of Excellence for Health Disparities Research (El Centro), at the University of Miami (UM), and the P20 Center of Excellence within the Center for Research on US Latino HIV/AIDS and Drug Abuse (CRUSADA), at Florida International University (FIU). Both originating centers have well-established research infrastructures and strong records of achievement in translating research findings into meaningful, culturally relevant clinical practice for vulnerable Latinos. In this application, we propose two behavioral intervention studies, each of which advances the work of the existing collaborating Centers of Excellence. Research Project 1 will develop a culturally tailored intervention directed at preventing and reducing SAVA conditions among seasonal farmworker men and will be packaged, in collaboration with the Community/Scientific Advisory Board (CSAB), for community dissemination. Research Project 2 adapts and tests an intervention, developed at El Centro, for preventing and reducing self-harm and other SAVA-related behaviors in Latina and sexual/gender minority youth. The two Research Projects will be integrated through a common set of data points to measure risk and protective factors, moderators, and SAVA indicators related to the CLaRO theme. The common data elements will be expanded as CLaRO evolves to include biological and community-level measures. This application leverages the success of the originating Centers of Excellence and considerable institutional resources to advance investigator development at the applicant institution (UM). We propose a Pilot Projects Program, which will be articulated with scientific resources, training and mentorship, and will fund up to 35 studies, serving as an engine for the advancement of early-stage investigators and for diversifying the workforce of successful health disparities investigators. The CLaRO theme, agenda, and priorities were developed in collaboration with a network of community partners who will play an ongoing role in guiding and disseminating CLaRO science and advancing neighborhood capacity building and multilevel interventions to promote health in Latino communities. Miami-Dade County— with its large and diverse Latino population, who face individual, social and structural risk factors and have high prevalence of substance abuse, HIV and violence/trauma—provides the ideal laboratory for advancing the science of Latino health and health disparities.

该应用程序提出了一个跨学科的拉丁美洲健康研究机会中心（CLaRO）， 开展和促进以社区为基础的多层次参与性研究， SAVA综合病症（药物滥用、暴力/创伤和艾滋病毒/艾滋病），并减少其不良健康状况 和心理健康后果。该中心的重点将是针对拉丁美洲人的干预措施 这些群体是脆弱群体，需要精确和专门的干预措施， 优化干预措施的获取和影响。拉丁美洲和加勒比区域组织将团结一致，推动在2005年期间开展的工作。 过去十年，两个NIMHD卓越中心：P60健康差异卓越中心 研究（埃尔森特罗），在迈阿密大学（UM），和P20卓越中心内的中心， 研究美国拉丁裔艾滋病毒/艾滋病和药物滥用（CRUSADA），在佛罗里达国际大学（FIU）。两 发起中心拥有完善的研究基础设施和良好的成就记录， 将研究成果转化为有意义的，与文化相关的临床实践，为弱势的拉丁美洲人服务。在这 应用，我们提出了两个行为干预研究，每一个都推进了现有的工作， 卓越合作中心。研究项目1将制定针对文化的干预措施， 预防和减少季节性农业工人的SAVA条件，并将包装， 与社区/科学咨询委员会（CSAB）合作，进行社区传播。研究 项目2调整和测试了在埃尔森特罗制定的预防和减少自我伤害的干预措施， 拉丁裔和性/性别少数青年的其他SAVA相关行为。这两个研究项目将 通过一组通用数据点进行整合，以衡量风险和保护因素、调节因素和SAVA 与CLaRO主题有关的指标。公共数据元素将随着CLaRO的发展而扩展， 包括生物和社区一级措施。此应用程序利用了发起 卓越中心和大量的机构资源，以促进研究人员的发展， 申请机构（UM）。我们提出了一个试点项目计划，该计划将与科学 资源，培训和指导，并将资助多达35项研究，作为推进的引擎 早期阶段的调查人员和多样化的成功的健康差距调查人员的劳动力。的 与社区伙伴网络合作制定了CLaRO主题、议程和优先事项 他将在指导和传播CLaRO科学和促进社区发展方面发挥持续作用 能力建设和多层次干预，以促进拉丁美洲社区的健康。迈阿密戴德县 其庞大而多样化的拉丁裔人口，他们面临着个人，社会和结构性风险因素， 药物滥用、艾滋病毒和暴力/创伤的流行率-为促进 拉丁美洲健康和健康差异的科学。
