DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application, which is being submitted in response to RFA MD-05-002, will allow for a dynamic and unique partnership for community-based participatory research between the award winning Metro Denver Black Church Initiative (MDBCI), Faith & Health Ministries (FHM), and an outstanding group of senior behavioral scientists drawn from the AMC Cancer Research Center, as well as science faculty from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, and the University of Colorado Comprehensive Cancer Center. The main goal of this partnership is to reduce cancer-related health disparities among African Americans living in northeast Denver, where nearly 30% of all African-Americans in the State of Colorado reside, representing about 77% of all African Americans living in Denver. Within this area about one-in-three of the adult population are members of churches affiliated with MDBCI. Described in this application is a partnership structure and process that will include Partnership Summits, Research Workshops, a Community Advisory Board and an External Advisory Board, as well as a definitive program of partnership process evaluation, where lessons learned and recommendations will be distilled to benefit future efforts at partnership development, particularly involving faith-based organizations. Other significant features of the proposed collaboration include the theoretical foundations of community-based partnership, incorporating the more contemporary view that such partnership should be based on Community empowerment, self-help and collaboration, and where the goal is community regeneration. An explicit focus on behavioral science theory and Diffusion of Innovative Theory to guide this effort are also noteworthy. As proposed herein, this partnership will seek to pilot test not one but two cancer prevention and control interventions to reduce health disparities, with the long-term vision of extending this research to larger-scale efficacy and effectiveness trials, and to a dissemination phase that would ultimately extend the reach of this research beyond the boundaries of Colorado.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请是针对 RFA MD-05-002 提交的，将允许获奖的丹佛市黑人教会倡议 (MDBCI)、信仰与健康部 (FHM) 以及来自 AMC 癌症研究中心的杰出高级行为科学家团队以及科罗拉多大学健康学院的科学教师之间建立动态且独特的合作伙伴关系，进行基于社区的参与性研究 科学中心和科罗拉多大学综合癌症中心。此次合作的主要目标是减少居住在丹佛东北部的非裔美国人之间与癌症相关的健康差距，该地区居住着科罗拉多州所有非裔美国人的近 30%，约占丹佛所有非裔美国人的 77%。在该地区，大约三分之一的成年人口是 MDBCI 附属教会的成员。本申请描述的是一种伙伴关系结构和流程，其中包括伙伴关系峰会、研究研讨会、社区咨询委员会和外部咨询委员会，以及伙伴关系流程评估的明确计划，其中吸取的经验教训和建议将被提炼出来，以利于未来伙伴关系发展的努力，特别是涉及信仰组织的伙伴关系。拟议合作的其他重要特征包括基于社区的伙伴关系的理论基础，纳入更现代的观点，即这种伙伴关系应基于社区赋权、自助和协作，目标是社区再生。明确关注行为科学理论和创新理论的传播来指导这一努力也值得注意。正如本文所提议的，这一伙伴关系将寻求试点测试不是一种而是两种癌症预防和控制干预措施，以减少健康差异，长期愿景是将这项研究扩展到更大规模的功效和有效性试验，并进入传播阶段，最终将这项研究的范围扩展到科罗拉多州之外。
