DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Louisiana, on the morning of August 29, 2005. The magnitude of the displacement that resulted was immense: the city's entire population of 455,000 was forced to leave the city and resettle, which some did temporarily and others permanently. The toll from the hurricane was enormous and continues to unfold. Even though this event occurred two years ago, research on many major topics of scientific and policy interest is only just beginning but is hampered by a lack of appropriate data. A critical need in assessing the impact of the hurricane and in planning a recovery is to obtain representative data on the whereabouts, status, health, and well-being of displaced New Orleans residents. The dispersion of residents makes this an extremely challenging undertaking. However, the value of these data for researchers, policymakers, and the public is extraordinarily high. In this project, which responds to PA-06-454 "Behavioral and Social Research on Disasters and Health," we will conduct a survey of New Orleans residents displaced by Hurricane Katrina, analyze the results, and disseminate the data. The specific aims of the project are to field the Displaced New Orleans Residents Study (DNORS); to analyze the results, focusing on the levels, sources, and patterns of non-response and on the displacement and return or resettlement of pre-Katrina residents of New Orleans; and to clean, document, enhance, and disseminate the DNORS data and encourage and support users of the data. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This study will field the Displaced New Orleans Residents Study (DNORS), which is based on a representative sample of pre-Katrina residents of the city with an oversample of poor families with children and will track and interview respondents wherever they currently reside. Study results will provide valuable information on the whereabouts, health, and well-being of children and families who lived in New Orleans at the time of Hurricane Katrina, including information on short- and medium-term outcomes over a period of up four years following the hurricane.

描述(申请人提供)：2005年8月29日上午，飓风卡特里娜袭击了路易斯安那州的新奥尔良。造成的流离失所规模是巨大的：该市45.5万总人口被迫离开该市重新定居，其中一些人是暂时的，另一些人是永久的。飓风造成的损失是巨大的，而且还在继续蔓延。尽管这一事件发生在两年前，但对许多具有科学和政策意义的重大课题的研究才刚刚开始，但由于缺乏适当的数据，研究工作受到阻碍。在评估飓风的影响和规划恢复工作时，一个关键的需要是获得有关流离失所的新奥尔良居民的下落、状况、健康和福祉的代表性数据。居民的分散使得这一任务极具挑战性。然而，这些数据对研究人员、政策制定者和公众的价值是非常高的。在这个响应PA-06-454“灾害与健康的行为和社会研究”的项目中，我们将对因卡特里娜飓风而流离失所的新奥尔良居民进行调查，分析结果，并传播数据。该项目的具体目标是实地进行新奥尔良流离失所居民研究(DNORS)；分析结果，重点是无反应的程度、来源和模式，以及卡特里娜飓风前新奥尔良居民的流离失所、返回或重新安置；清理、记录、增强和传播DNORS数据，并鼓励和支持这些数据的用户。公共卫生相关性：这项研究将纳入流离失所的新奥尔良居民研究(DNORS)，该研究基于卡特里娜飓风前该市有代表性的居民样本，其中有孩子的贫困家庭过多，并将跟踪和采访受访者目前居住的任何地方。研究结果将提供关于卡特里娜飓风发生时居住在新奥尔良的儿童和家庭的下落、健康和福祉的宝贵信息，包括关于飓风后长达四年的短期和中期结果的信息。
