DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The High Plains Intermountain Center for Agricultural Health and Safety (HICAHS) serves the six states of Colorado, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Utah. HICAHS has an outstanding record of productivity (see Past Performance) highlighted by our lead role on two national initiatives involving all of the NIOSH Ag Centers. The mission of HICAHS is to reduce morbidity and mortality in the agricultural population. Housed in a land grant institution, HICAHS is well positioned to translate research knowledge into community action. This application is based on extensive input from our External Advisory Board, representing a broad array of constituent groups from all six states. We propose an innovative multidisciplinary center with a key emphasis on leveraging expertise and resources among many partners in a multifaceted approach to promote healthier agriculture in this region. To accomplish this we bring together an outstanding Director (Dr. Reynolds) and a nationally recognized group of researchers with wide-ranging expertise to conduct 9 coordinated research, prevention, and outreach projects addressing regional priorities identified by our constituents. These projects include a number of novel approaches and tools. All of the projects address our Center Theme: Health and Safety on Ranches and Farms in the High Plains Rocky Mountain Region, with a strong emphasis on livestock, underserved populations (Hispanics, Children, Prison farmers), and multidisciplinary partnerships. The goals of the High Plains Intermountain Center for Agricultural Health and Safety address the NIOSH Center Initiative Project goals to: 1) Conduct interdisciplinary research related to the prevention of occupational disease and injury among agricultural workers and their families in Federal Region VIII. 2) Develop, implement, and evaluate education, translation, and outreach programs for promoting health and safety for agricultural workers and their families in Federal Region VIII. 3) Develop, implement, and evaluate model programs and tools for intervention and prevention of illness and injury among agricultural workers and their families in Federal Region VIII. 4) Develop linkages and communication with other governmental and non-governmental bodies involved in agricultural health and safety, and especially with other agricultural health and safety programs. The proposed projects address 16 of the 17 PAR Priorities, and include aquaculture (fisheries). This application also addresses the priorities of the National Program for Occupational Safety, and Health in Agriculture and NORA. Partners include investigators at NIOSH, NIEHS, and 5 other NIOSH Agricultural Centers.

描述（由申请人提供）：高平原山间农业健康与安全中心（HICAHS）服务于科罗拉多州、蒙大拿州、北达科他州、南达科他州、怀俄明州和犹他州六个州。HICAHS在两项涉及所有NIOSH农业中心的国家倡议中发挥了主导作用，突出了卓越的生产力记录（见过去的表现）。HICAHS的使命是降低农业人口的发病率和死亡率。HICAHS位于一所赠地机构内，能够很好地将研究知识转化为社区行动。该申请是基于我们的外部咨询委员会的广泛投入，该委员会代表了来自所有六个州的广泛组成团体。我们建议建立一个创新的多学科中心，重点是利用众多合作伙伴的专业知识和资源，以多方面的方式促进本地区的健康农业。为了实现这一目标，我们汇集了一位杰出的主任（雷诺兹博士）和全国公认的具有广泛专业知识的研究人员小组，开展协调的研究、预防和外展项目，解决我们的选民确定的区域优先事项。这些项目包括许多新颖的方法和工具。所有项目都涉及我们中心的主题：高平原落基山区牧场和农场的健康与安全，重点关注牲畜、服务不足人群（西班牙裔、儿童、监狱农民）和多学科合作伙伴关系。高平原山间农业健康与安全中心的目标是解决NIOSH中心倡议项目的目标：1)开展与预防联邦区第八农业工人及其家庭的职业病和伤害有关的跨学科研究。2)制定、实施和评估教育、翻译和推广计划，以促进联邦区第八农业工人及其家庭的健康和安全。3)开发、实施和评估干预和预防联邦区农业工人及其家庭疾病和伤害的示范项目和工具。4)与其他涉及农业健康和安全的政府和非政府机构建立联系和沟通，特别是与其他农业健康和安全项目。拟议的项目涉及17个PAR优先事项中的16个，并包括水产养殖（渔业）。本应用程序还解决了国家农业职业安全和健康计划和NORA的优先事项。合作伙伴包括NIOSH、NIEHS和其他5个NIOSH农业中心的研究人员。
