DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): At 14% of the U.S. population (42.6 million people), Hispanics are the nation's largest minority group. At the same time, as identified by Healthy People 2010 and the DHHS National Healthcare Disparities Report, Hispanics are underserved, including a lack of culturally proficient and linguistically appropriate health information. This lack of information is a significant disease management barrier for Hispanics who disproportionately suffer from a number of chronic illnesses including HIV/AIDS and asthma. Hispanics are also less likely to benefit from science education or enter research career paths despite the need for an improved science base that benefits from an understanding of the health experiences of Hispanic communities. The National Alliance for Hispanic Health proposes the Proyecto Ciencia NIAID Hispanic Outreach Initiative to: (1) support dissemination of information on NIAID research opportunities to Hispanic scientists and students at multiple career levels, (2) foster interest in science and research careers by highlighting Hispanic role models and providing information to students and parents on available resources, and (3) improve the availability and reach of NIAID health and science information to Hispanic health consumers. These aims further the "NIAID Strategic Plan for Addressing Health Disparities" and the "NIH Roadmap." Key science partners include the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Research!America, and the Alliance science network of sixty two university partners. Key communication partners include Hispanics Today (NBC), Radio Biling¿e Network, Univision, and the Alliance's media network of six hundred Hispanic community newspapers and radio stations. The advisory committee will be chaired by Dr. Lauro Cavazos, former U.S. Secretary of Education. All work will be supported by the Alliance's member network that reaches over 12 million Hispanic health consumers annually.

描述（由申请人提供）：西班牙裔美国人占美国人口的14%（4260万人），是美国最大的少数民族。与此同时，正如《2010年健康人》和《卫生与公众服务部国家医疗保健差距报告》所指出的那样，西班牙裔人得不到充分的服务，包括缺乏文化上精通和语言上适当的健康信息。这种信息的缺乏是一个重大的疾病管理障碍，为西班牙裔谁不成比例地患有一些慢性疾病，包括艾滋病毒/艾滋病和哮喘。西班牙裔也不太可能受益于科学教育或进入研究职业道路，尽管需要一个改进的科学基础，从西班牙裔社区的健康经验的理解受益。 西班牙裔健康全国联盟提出了Proyecto Ciudeniaid西班牙裔外展倡议，以：（1）支持在多个职业层次上向西班牙裔科学家和学生传播有关NIAID研究机会的信息，（2）通过突出西班牙裔榜样并向学生和家长提供有关可用资源的信息，培养对科学和研究职业的兴趣，和（3）改善NIAID健康和科学信息对西班牙裔健康消费者的可用性和覆盖面。这些目标进一步推动了“NIAID解决健康差距战略计划”和“NIH路线图”。" 主要的科学合作伙伴包括美国科学促进会（AAAS），研究！美国，以及由62所大学合作伙伴组成的联盟科学网络。主要的传播合作伙伴包括今日西班牙裔（NBC）、广播电台、Univision以及联盟的600份西班牙裔社区报纸和广播电台媒体网络。咨询委员会将由美国前教育部长Lauro Cavazos博士担任主席。所有工作都将得到联盟成员网络的支持，该网络每年覆盖1200多万西班牙裔健康消费者。
