Center for Rural Health and Economic Disparities Research

摘要/概要：具体目标 Tuskegee RCMI社区参与核心正在制定国家标准 如何将高影响力的研究应用于社会孤立和经济弱势群体 社区.这些社区包括黑带的农村地区。过去三 多年来，CEC与合作伙伴一起，在当地黑带中建立了良好的关系， 社区.我们正在利用我们从居民参与中学到的东西来开发一个模型， 增强农村居民实现最佳福祉的能力。 鉴于我们与整个黑带社区组织的伙伴关系不断增长， CEC具有独特的优势，可以通过扩大 我们提供的服务。我们希望透过这项建议， 开发一个研究和培训中心，赋予农村黑带社区权力， 勒韦林提高卫生成果。本组织的使命和宗旨 中心的目标是建立可持续的机制，帮助黑带居民掌握他们的 健康、社会和经济命运。我们的核心价值是支持道德研究，自我- 决心、集体和个人赋权。 ·具体目标1：为塔斯基吉大学农村卫生和 经济差异研究中心。该中心将由一个多部门的 相关专家团队。 ·具体目标2：建立黑带数字网络（BBDN）， 向整个亚拉巴马黑带的居民传播科学发现。 ·具体目标3：联合教师专业知识，开发和实施多层GIS 亚拉巴马黑带的地图应用。 这个项目将扩展我们所学到的知识，以开发一个信息传递网络 该中心与农村居民之间的联系，其中许多人无法使用宽带。 通过教师研究和建筑环境数据的分布，我们将提供农村 居民的工具，以克服障碍，以促进健康的信息。我们有 与社区居民建立了伙伴关系，他们将在以下方面发挥重要作用： 执行项目目标，包括一个以社区为基础的项目助理。居民也会 制作市政霍尔斯，并为BBDN提供建筑环境信息。

Abstract/Summary: Specific Aims The Tuskegee RCMI Community Engagement Core is developing a national standard for how to apply high impact research to socially isolated and economically disadvantaged communities. These communities include rural areas in the Black Belt. Over the last three years, the CEC in union with its partners, has developed strong rapport in local Black Belt communities. We are using what we learned from resident engagement to develop a model for empowering rural residents to achieve optimal wellbeing. Given our growing partnerships with community organizations throughout the Black Belt, the CEC is uniquely positioned to redouble our effectiveness by expanding the scope of the services we provide. Through this proposal, we seek to establish the infrastructure for developing a research and training center that empowers rural Black Belt communities while levering community alliances to enhance health outcomes. The mission and purpose of the center is to create sustainable mechanisms for helping Black Belt residents master their health, social, and economic destiny. Our core value is to champion ethical research, self- determination, collective and individual empowerment. • Specific Aim 1: Establish a foundation for the Tuskegee University Rural Health and Economic Disparities Research Center. The center will be composed of a multisectoral team of relevant experts. • Specific Aim 2: Establish the Black Belt Digital Network (BBDN) to manage the dissemination of scientific findings to residents across the Alabama Black Belt. • Specific Aim 3: Unite faculty expertise to develop and implement a multilayered GIS map application of the Alabama Black Belt. This project will expand upon what we have learned to develop an information delivery network between the Center and rural residents, many of whom do not have access to broadband. Through the distribution of faculty research and built environment data, we will provide rural residents with the tools to overcome barriers to health enhancing information. We have established partnerships with community residents who will assume a fundamental role in executing project aims including a community-based Project Assistant. Residents will also produce town halls and provide built environment information for the BBDN.
