The purpose of the Underserved Populations Core (UPC) is to provide a culturally competent framework for achieving the specific aims of the Administrative Core, Theory, Research Methods & Technology Core and the Dissemination Core. UPC activities will extend the capabilities of nurse researchers with studies of diverse populations underserved by the present health care system and stimulate the use of strategies for implementing community-based interventions. While the other three Center Cores focus on the administration of the Center, the theoretical and technical aspects of research and dissemination of findings, the UPC will focus on promoting the multicultural awareness, sensitivity, and competence essential to building relationship with underserved populations, which will then be translated into the design and implementation of community-based intervention for underserved populations. The specific aims of the UPC core are to: 1. Promote multicultural awareness, sensitivity, and competence in designing and conducting research on community-based interventions among diverse and underserved populations. 2. Facilitate relationship-building between researchers and research participants who are members of underserved populations. 3. Monitor the progress of pilot investigators in addressing multicultural issues of awareness, sensitivity, and competence in conducting research on community-based interventions among diverse and underserved populations. 4. Facilitate the interpretation and dissemination of findings from pilot studies to underserved targe populations. 5. Plan and implement Summer Research Institutes for Center affiliates and investigators to promote the development and testing of community-based interventions for underserved populations.

弱势群体核心(UPC)的目的是为实现行政核心、理论、研究方法和技术核心以及传播核心的具体目标提供一个具有文化能力的框架。UPC活动将扩展护士研究人员的能力，对目前保健系统服务不足的不同人群进行研究，并鼓励使用以社区为基础的干预措施的战略。虽然中心的其他三个核心侧重于中心的管理、研究和研究成果传播的理论和技术方面， UPC将侧重于促进多文化意识、敏感性和能力，这对于与服务不足的人口建立关系至关重要，然后将转化为为服务不足的人口设计和实施基于社区的干预措施。UPC核心的具体目标是： 1.在不同和未得到充分服务的人群中，提高设计和开展以社区为基础的干预措施的研究的多元文化意识、敏感性和能力。 2.促进研究人员与属于服务不足人群的研究参与者之间建立关系。 3.监测试点调查员在解决多元文化问题方面的进展情况，这些问题涉及在不同和服务不足的人群中开展社区干预研究的意识、敏感性和能力。 4.便利向服务不足的目标人群解释和传播试点研究的结果。 5.为中心附属机构和调查人员规划和实施夏季研究所，以促进针对服务不足人群的社区干预措施的开发和测试。
