DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This 3-year project uses community-based participatory action research to address health disparities among African American and Latino youth in the Bronx, NY, who are the defined "community" for this project. We will design, implement and conduct a process evaluation of an intervention to reduce one health disparity selected by this community. Adolescents are the lead decision-makers; there are two levels of partnership: The Project Planning Group (PPG) and The Bronx Coalition for Adolescent Health (Coalition) Both will be full participants in each phase of the work. The PPG includes: 14 Bronx teenagers age 14-19 that represent the larger community of Bronx teens; 2 researchers with scientific expertise; 2 program specialists with expertise on developing/implementing interventions; and 3 physicians who will provide health information. The Coalition includes organizations having broad experience serving youth or specific expertise in a health disparity and will provide advice, and political and practical support. Specific Aim 1, building a partnership, will be accomplished through recommended strategies (e.g., having someone responsible for nurturing the partnership itself, shared responsibility for developing rules and processes, equity in decision making). Specific Aim 2, conducting a needs assessment, includes analyses of national and local data; in-depth community interviews with stakeholders; a "Windshield Tour" to identify community factors; and data on relevant Bronx programs. Specific Aim 3, selecting a health disparity, will be guided by Friere's structured dialogue model of listening-dialogue-action. Consensus methods will be used to select one disparity. Friere's action phase will be implemented in Specific Aim 4, developing the intervention. We will develop the program using techniques used in our adolescent intervention trials. The PPG/Coalition will identify goals with the PPG staff will provide technical assistance. Specific Aim 5, piloting/conducting a process evaluation, will identify problems in recruitment, retention, receptivity, etc. Specific Aim 6, evaluating the partnership, will assess the success of the partnership on leadership/management, the collaborative process, efficiency, synergy, empowerment, and satisfaction using the Partnership Self-Assessment Tool along with qualitative interviews. This process will lead to a testable community-based intervention that has grown from the community's own experience and expertise, informed by epidemiologic data, program expertise and theory.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个为期 3 年的项目使用基于社区的参与性行动研究来解决纽约布朗克斯区非裔美国人和拉丁裔青年的健康差异，他们是该项目定义的“社区”。 我们将设计、实施和进行一项干预措施的过程评估，以减少该社区选择的一种健康差距。 青少年是主要决策者；有两个层次的伙伴关系：项目规划小组（PPG）和布朗克斯青少年健康联盟（联盟）两者都将全面参与每个阶段的工作。 PPG 包括： 14 名 14-19 岁的布朗克斯青少年，代表了更大的布朗克斯青少年社区； 2名具有科学专业知识的研究人员； 2 名具有制定/实施干预措施专业知识的项目专家；以及 3 名提供健康信息的医生。 该联盟包括具有为青年服务的丰富经验或在健康差异方面具有特定专业知识的组织，并将提供建议以及政治和实际支持。具体目标 1，建立伙伴关系，将通过推荐的策略来实现（例如，由专人负责培育伙伴关系本身、共同负责制定规则和流程、决策公平）。 具体目标 2，进行需求评估，包括对国家和地方数据的分析；与利益相关者进行深入的社区访谈； “挡风玻璃之旅”以识别社区因素；以及相关布朗克斯项目的数据。 具体目标 3，即选择健康差异，将以 Friere 的聆听-对话-行动的结构化对话模型为指导。将使用共识方法来选择一个视差。 Friere 的行动阶段将在具体目标 4 中实施，即制定干预措施。我们将使用青少年干预试验中使用的技术来开发该计划。 PPG/联盟将确定目标，PPG 工作人员将提供技术援助。具体目标 5，试点/进行流程评估，将识别招聘、保留、接受性等方面的问题。具体目标 6，评估合作伙伴关系，将使用合作伙伴关系自我评估工具以及定性访谈来评估合作伙伴关系在领导/管理、协作流程、效率、协同、授权和满意度方面的成功。 这一过程将导致可测试的基于社区的干预措施，该干预措施源自社区自身的经验和专业知识，并以流行病学数据、项目专业知识和理论为基础。
