DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Since 1993, the vision of the University of South Carolina Prevention Research Center (USC PRC) has been Physically Active People in Active Community Environments. Crafted jointly with its community committee, Sumter County Active Lifestyles (SCAL), the specific aims of the USC PRC for 2009-2014 are: 1. Conduct a core community-based participatory research (CBPR) project. The overall goal of the USC PRC core CBPR project is to determine the effectiveness of a 12-month multi-level intervention on walking behavior and health-related outcomes in a cohort of 250-325 adults living in five underserved communities consisting of a high proportion of African-Americans and families below the poverty level. The project will explore the impact of the intervention on social norms, capital, cohesion, and support for PA in these areas. 2. Engage the community and key partners in USC PRC efforts. The USC PRC engages individuals in SCAL coalition as the community committee. SCAL, comprised of over 30 persons representing diverse community interests, will continue to engage members of underserved Sumter County communities in core research and capacity-building activities, and continue as the lead organization for the partnership, as they have done since 1998. 3. Maintain an integrated set of strategies, including electronic channels, to disseminate research findings to diverse audiences, including researchers, public health practitioners, and community partners. 4.The USC PRC will work with SCAL and an external advisory board to develop, implement, and replicate a Community Advocacy and Leadership Program (CALP) to develop skills of grass-roots leaders in underserved communities in Sumter County and elsewhere in SC. Through a series of 8 workshops and year-long technical assistance, the CALP will support local groups in their efforts to effectively advocate for positive changes in their communities in support of physical activity and health. Peer Mentors will be trained to provide technical assistance, thereby increasing the likelihood of being able to disseminate the program. 5. Evaluate center activities. The USC PRC will use designated resources to assess the CALP and other center activities, and collect data related to the National PRC Performance Indicators. RELEVANCE (See instructions): With a focus on low income, predominantly racial/ethnic minority underserved communities, the center-level and core research endeavors will greatly assist with reducing individual and social disparities in PA behavior and overall health, and will provide a firm foundation of evidence and experience to support the researchers' and community's ability to secure additional funding and expand the impact on eliminating health disparities.

描述（由申请人提供）： 自1993年以来，南卡罗来纳大学预防研究中心（USC PRC）的愿景一直是活跃的社区环境中的身体活跃人士。 USC PRC在2009 - 2014年与其社区委员会共同制作的Sumter County Active Lifestyles（Scal）是：1。进行基于社区的核心参与性研究（CBPR）项目。 USC PRC Core CBPR项目的总体目标是确定在250-325名居住在五个服务不足的社区中的12个月多层干预对步行行为和与健康相关的结果的有效性，这些社区由贫困水平以下的非裔美国人和家庭组成。该项目将探索干预对这些领域中PA的社会规范，资本，凝聚力和支持的影响。 2。与社区和主要合作伙伴一起参与USC PRC努力。 USC PRC将个人与社区委员会互动。 Scale由30多名代表多样化社区利益的人组成，将继续吸引服务不足的Sumter County社区参与核心研究和能力建设活动，并继续作为伙伴关系的主要组织，就像他们自1998年以来所做的那样。3。维持一系列综合的策略，包括电子渠道，以电子渠道，以电子渠道，将研究结果驱散研究结果，向不同的受众群体，包括研究人员，包括研究人员，包括研究人员，包括研究人员，包括研究人员，派出了培训师，派出了派景，派出了派景，派出了派景，派出了派景，派出了派景，派出了派别，派出了派景，构成了派景，并派出了派景。 4. USC PRC将与Scale和外部咨询委员会合作，以开发，实施和复制社区宣传和领导力计划（CALP），以发展Sumter County和SC其他地方服务不足社区的基层领导者的技能。通过一系列8个研讨会和为期一年的技术援助，CALP将支持当地团体，以有效地倡导社区积极变化，以支持体育锻炼和健康。同伴导师将接受培训以提供技术援助，从而增加了能够传播该计划的可能性。 5。评估中心活动。 USC PRC将使用指定的资源来评估CALP和其他中心活动，并收集与国家PRC绩效指标有关的数据。相关性（请参阅说明）：重点是低收入，主要是种族/族裔少数民族的社区，中心水平和核心研究的努力将极大地帮助降低PA行为和整体健康中的个人和社会差异，并将提供证据和经验的牢固基础，以支持研究人员以及社区对健康的健康和对健康的影响不利的能力。
