DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Meharry Medical College-Community Health Centers (CHCs) Community Networks Program (CNP) is a component of the Meharry Center for Optimal Health. Its purpose is to reduce cancer health disparities among African Americans by conducting community-based participatory education in six urban and rural communities in Tennessee (Nashville, Chattanooga, Memphis), and Mississippi (Jackson, Canton, Mound, Bayou). Overall program goals are to significantly improve access to and utilization of beneficial cancer interventions in these six CHC communities, and provide a cadre of well-trained researchers who continue to reduce disparities in these communities. The CNP will be implemented in three phases over five years, in Phase I (Year 1), an umbrella coalition of organizations and individuals will be formed to begin making joint plans for community networking activities, and to develop an infra-structure that facilitates research participation in the target population. Meharry will be the Coordinating Center. A Steering Committee will meet annually at Meharry, and Regional Committees representative of their communities will meet at five sites on a monthly basis. These committees will be advised regularly by persons from the target population that are knowledgeable of the community and of the problem of cancer. Furthermore, collaborations will be formed with academic, governmental, and other key organizations that can contribute to the development and implementation of quality research methods. A Logic Model has been developed to provide operational guidelines across all sites. Training in community-based and other methods will occur at all levels of personnel, including new, especially minority, investigators. In Phase II, program development will occur, using the Logic Model and community-based participatory guidelines, as well as guidelines from other management and behavioral models. In Phase III, funding will be sought to sustain credible beneficial programs on a large scale

描述（由申请人提供）： 梅哈里医学院社区健康中心 (CHC) 社区网络计划 (CNP) 是梅哈里最佳健康中心的组成部分。 其目的是通过在田纳西州（纳什维尔、查塔努加、孟菲斯）和密西西比州（杰克逊、坎顿、芒德、河口）的六个城乡社区开展基于社区的参与式教育，减少非裔美国人之间的癌症健康差异。 总体计划目标是显着改善这六个 CHC 社区对有益癌症干预措施的获取和利用，并提供一支训练有素的研究人员队伍，继续缩小这些社区的差距。 CNP 将在五年内分三个阶段实施，在第一阶段（第一年），将形成一个由组织和个人组成的伞式联盟，开始制定社区网络活动的联合计划，并开发促进目标人群研究参与的基础设施。 梅哈里将担任协调中心。 指导委员会每年将在梅哈里举行会议，代表其社区的区域委员会将每月在五个地点举行会议。 这些委员会将定期接受目标人群中了解社区和癌症问题的人士的建议。 此外，还将与学术界、政府和其他重要组织建立合作，为高质量研究方法的开发和实施做出贡献。 已开发出逻辑模型来为所有站点提供操作指南。 将以社区为基础的方法和其他方法的培训将对各级人员进行，包括新的调查员，尤其是少数族裔调查员。 在第二阶段，将使用逻辑模型和基于社区的参与指南以及其他管理和行为模型的指南进行计划开发。 在第三阶段，将寻求资金来维持大规模的可信的有益计划
