DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Community Networks Program is designed to address the cancer burden in racial/ethnic minorities by engaging community members through Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR). The Meharry Community Health Centers (CHC)-Community Networks Program (CNP) Center will adhere to CBPR methodologies to reach the target populations of African Americans being served by partnering CHCs in Chattanooga, Memphis, and Nashville. Meharry and partnering CHCs share a common vision of improving health care and health outcomes, and reducing health disparities among underserved populations through service, outreach, and wellness. Meharry will assume a leadership role of the entire infrastructure, and will provide coordination within the CBPR framework, so that goals, objectives, and specific aims are achieved. The Center will include the three required program components; (1) Outreach, (2) Research, and (3) Training. The Outreach program will focus on developing a Community Action Plan designed to improve risk factor status (diet, exercise, smoking, screening, and cancer prevention knowledge) among the targeted population. The large Research Program will work at the three CHCs on HPV and cervical cancer screening, implementing interventions targeting providers, parents and age-appropriate children. The small research project will focus on determining the knowledge, attitudes, and practices relative to providing biospecimens for clinical trials research, and the Training Program will seek to recruit junior faculty as trainees to learn about CBPR methods through a variety of educational techniques, including mentoring, career development plans, conducting pilot projects, attending special workshops, courses and lectures. The MMC-CHC-CNP will oversee and provide logistical support to these program elements to assure smooth coordination and Center excellence, and contribute to a reduction in cancer and other co-morbid health disparities in African Americans In the target areas of Tennessee.

描述（由申请人提供）：社区网络项目旨在通过基于社区的参与式研究（CBPR）吸引社区成员来解决种族/少数民族的癌症负担。梅哈里社区卫生中心(CHC)-社区网络计划（CNP）中心将坚持CBPR方法，通过与查塔努加、孟菲斯和纳什维尔的社区卫生中心合作，为目标非裔美国人提供服务。Meharry和合作的卫生保健中心有着共同的愿景，即通过服务、外展和健康来改善卫生保健和卫生成果，并缩小服务不足人群之间的卫生差距。Meharry将承担整个基础设施的领导角色，并将在CBPR框架内提供协调，以便实现目标、目的和具体目的。该中心将包括三个必要的方案组成部分；(1)外展；(2)研究；(3)培训。外展项目将侧重于制定一项社区行动计划，旨在改善目标人群的风险因素状况（饮食、锻炼、吸烟、筛查和癌症预防知识）。这个大型研究项目将在三个CHCs开展HPV和宫颈癌筛查工作，针对提供者、父母和适龄儿童实施干预措施。这个小型研究项目将侧重于确定与为临床试验研究提供生物标本有关的知识、态度和实践，培训计划将寻求招募初级教员作为受训人员，通过各种教育技术学习CBPR方法，包括指导、职业发展计划、开展试点项目、参加特别研讨会、课程和讲座。MMC-CHC-CNP将对这些项目要素进行监督并提供后勤支持，以确保顺利协调和中心卓越，并有助于减少田纳西州目标地区非洲裔美国人的癌症和其他共病健康差异。
