DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The "Community Approaches to Cardiovascular Health in Detroit" (CATCH) project will use a community based participatory research (CBPR) approach to reduce and ultimately eliminate health disparities in cardiovascular disease by improving heart health in Detroit, Michigan, a city in which 83% of residents are African American and 5% are Latino/a. CATCH is a project of the Healthy Environments Partnership (HEP), a partnership of several community-based organizations, health service providers and academic institutions that has been working together to identify relationships between inequalities and cardiovascular disease in Detroit since 2000. The work of HEP is guided by a Steering Committee composed of representatives from each of the partner organizations that operates in accordance with a set of CBPR principles adopted by the partnership. The Steering Committee has identified the need to expand the partnership to assess the factors associated with and develop strategies to address health disparities in Detroit. The aims of this project are to: 1) expand and maintain a community-based participatory research partnership, to strengthen the ability of the Detroit communities involved to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 2) implement a Community Assessment that engages community residents, community-based organizations, health and human service providers, academic researchers and policy and decision makers in Detroit's eastside, northwest and southwest areas to examine challenges, opportunities, and strategies to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 3) engage community residents, community-based organizations, hearth and human service providers, academic institutions and policy and decision makers in designing a Multilevel Intervention Plan to promote cardiovascular health among residents of eastside, northwest, and southwest Detroit to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; 4) conduct and evaluate a multilevel (individual, organizational, community, and policy level) pilot intervention research study to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease; and 5) evaluate the partnership process to gain an increased understanding of the successes, facilitating factors and barriers to using a CBPR approach to reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in cardiovascular disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：“底特律心血管健康的社区方法”（CATCH）项目将使用基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）方法来减少并最终消除密歇根州底特律的心脏健康状况的健康差异。 Catch是健康环境伙伴关系（HEP）的项目，这是几个基于社区的组织，卫生服务提供者和学术机构的合作伙伴关系，这些伙伴关系一直在底特律自2000年以来，旨在确定不平等与心血管疾病之间的关系。自2000年以来，HEP的工作是由由伙伴通过伙伴组织组成的指导委员会来指导的，该委员会由伙伴组织与ACBANCES的行为委员会合作。指导委员会已经确定有必要扩大合作伙伴关系，以评估与底特律健康差异相关的因素和制定策略。 该项目的目的是：1）扩大和维持基于社区的参与研究伙伴关系，以增强底特律社区的能力减少和消除心血管疾病的差异； 2）实施社区评估，该评估与底特律东区，西北和西南地区的社区居民，基于社区的组织，卫生和人类服务提供者，学术研究人员以及政策以及决策者，以研究挑战，机遇以及减少心血管疾病的差异并最终消除差异； 3）与社区居民，基于社区的组织，炉膛和人类服务提供商，学术机构以及政策以及决策者一起设计多层次干预计划，以促进东区，西北和底特律的居民中的心血管健康，以减少并最终消除心血管疾病的差异； 4）进行和评估多级（个人，组织，社区和政策水平）试点干预研究，以减少并最终消除心血管疾病的差异； 5）评估伙伴关系过程，以增加对成功，促进因素和使用CBPR方法减少并消除心血管疾病差异的障碍的障碍。
