Illinois Prevention Research Center

伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校伊利诺伊州预防研究中心(IPRC)的主要使命是通过改变行为的方法来减少健康差距，方法是在整个生命周期内进行健康促进和疾病预防研究，将研究转化为实践，并衡量健康促进和疾病预防计划和倡议的现实有效性、传播和转化。政策与政策研究中心的活动集中在七个领域，具体目标是：(1)与社区和学术伙伴，包括社区委员会和社区咨询委员会、大学教职员工、学生、公共卫生机构和非传统伙伴建立和保持协作关系，以解决数据驱动的健康差距问题；(2)让社区参与并建立 (3)在循证公共卫生研究和实践方面开展社区培训、研究生辅导和继续教育机会；(4)实施和评估创新方案和干预措施，并向社区和专业受众传播研究结果；(5)培养一支训练有素的研究人员、从业人员、学生和社区成员队伍，以提高社区、公共卫生机构和组织以及预防中心进行循证参与性研究的能力；(6)传播和 将干预方案和研究结果翻译给公共卫生界、地方、州和国家政策制定者、社区合作伙伴和研究界；以及(7)确定可能影响活动实施和成果取得的背景因素。IPRC的活动以疾控中心预防研究中心计划的逻辑模型为指导，并以社区参与式研究的最新概念框架为基础，在个人、组织和环境层面制定干预战略，并传播创新。审查委员会的评估重点是我们在实现与七个总体目标中的每一个目标有关的目标方面取得的成功。

The Illinois Prevention Research Center (IPRC) of the University of Illinois at Chicago has a primary mission to reduce health disparities through behavior change approaches by conducting health promotion and disease prevention research across the lifespan, translating research into practice and measuring the real-world effectiveness, dissemination and translation of health promotion and disease prevention programs and initiatives. The IPRC's activities concentrate in seven areas and aim specifically to: (1) Establish and maintain collaborative relationships with community and academic partners, including a Community Committee and CommunityAdvisory Board, university faculty, students, public health agencies and non-traditional partners to address data driven health disparities; (2) Engage the community and establish a research agenda to conduct participatory research on modification of health behaviors associated with increased risk for major chronic conditions such as obesity and diabetes; (3) Conduct community training, graduate student mentoring and continuing education opportunities in evidence-based public health research and practice; (4) Implement and evaluate innovative programs and interventions and communicate findings to community and professional audiences; (5) Develop a cadre of well trained researchers, practitioners, students and community members to enhance the capacity of communities, public health agencies and organizations, and prevention centers to conduct evidence-based participatory research; (6) Disseminate and translate intervention protocols and research findings to the public health community, local, state, and national policy makers, community-partners, and the research community; and (7) Identify contextual factors that may influence implementation of activities and achievement of outcomes. IPRC activities are guided by the CDC's Logic Model for the Prevention Research Center Program and informed by state-of-the-art conceptual frameworks for community-participatory research, development of intervention strategies at the individual, organizational, and environmental level, and diffusion of innovations. The evaluation of the IPRC focuses on our success in achieving the goals related to each of the seven overall aims.
