DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Community-based participatory research (CBPR) holds that community individuals need to be equal partners in research activities. Participatory research is based on the premise that solutions to problems are more likely when the people affected by a problem are involved in its solution. Participatory research has become increasingly popular in recent years; however, it remains difficult for community partners to be involved in the front end that is, the selection of topic and the study design -- of community research. We have successfully formed long-standing partnerships with Hispanic communities in a region, the Lower Yakima Valley, of Washington State. To date, we have conducted projects on cancer education and prevention, and on pesticide control in that region. As part of our partnerships of the past ten years, we have been able to identify key concerns of community groups and members in the Valley. In the past two years, there has been a burgeoning interest in Type 2 diabetes in the Valley. It has been of special concern to Hispanics who have higher risks of Type 2 diabetes than non-Hispanic Whites. We propose to build a partnership with Valley communities, organizations, and members to address the issue of diabetes in the Valley. Our collaborators in the Valley are eager to embark on a project to address diabetes. During the three planning years, we will recruit a Board and plan a pilot project. A carefully designed planning process will be followed to ensure that the Community Advisory Board (CAB) will be the major decision-maker in planning and implementing the pilot project. The pilot project will be conducted in Years 02 and 03. In year 03, we will work with the Board to develop an application for a full-scale project. The CAB will develop the application, which will be written in conjunction with the scientific partner, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC). The FHCRC will offer its application to the review committee to review it prior to its submission as a competitive renewal. We propose to begin our partnership with the Northwest Communities Education Center (NCEC), a nonprofit organization that provides outreach to Hispanics, and especially to farm-workers, in the Yakima Valley of Washington State. The NCEC believes in building stronger, healthier communities by creating partnerships to meet community needs. It is the home of Radio KDNA, the primary Spanish-language radio station in the Valley. The NCEC has partnerships with 69 other organizations in the Yakima Valley, and has offered to help us recruit partners from those organizations for this effort.

描述（由申请人提供）：基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）认为社区个体需要成为研究活动中的平等合作伙伴。参与式研究的前提是，当受问题影响的人参与问题的解决时，问题的解决更有可能。 近年来，参与式研究变得越来越流行；然而，社区伙伴参与社区研究的前端，即选题和研究设计仍然存在困难。 我们已成功与华盛顿州下亚基马山谷地区的西班牙裔社区建立了长期合作伙伴关系。 迄今为止，我们已在该地区开展了癌症教育和预防以及农药控制项目。作为过去十年合作伙伴关系的一部分，我们已经能够确定硅谷社区团体和成员的主要关注点。过去两年，硅谷对 2 型糖尿病的兴趣日益浓厚。 这是西班牙裔人特别关注的问题，因为他们患 2 型糖尿病的风险比非西班牙裔白人更高。 我们建议与硅谷社区、组织和成员建立伙伴关系，以解决硅谷的糖尿病问题。我们在硅谷的合作者渴望开展一个解决糖尿病的项目。在这三个规划年内，我们将招募一个董事会并规划一个试点项目。将遵循精心设计的规划流程，以确保社区咨询委员会（CAB）成为规划和实施试点项目的主要决策者。试点项目将在第二年和第三年进行。第三年，我们将与董事会合作开发全面项目的应用程序。 CAB 将开发该应用程序，该应用程序将与科学合作伙伴 Fred Hutchinson 癌症研究中心 (FHCRC) 共同编写。 FHCRC 将向审查委员会提出申请，以在提交竞争性续展之前对其进行审查。 我们提议开始与西北社区教育中心 (NCEC) 建立合作伙伴关系，这是一个非营利组织，为华盛顿州亚基马谷的西班牙裔，特别是农场工人提供外展服务。 NCEC 相信通过建立伙伴关系来满足社区需求，可以建设更强大、更健康的社区。这里是山谷中主要西班牙语广播电台 KDNA 广播电台的所在地。 NCEC 与亚基马谷的其他 69 个组织建立了合作伙伴关系，并主动提出帮助我们从这些组织中招募合作伙伴来开展这项工作。
