DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Native Hawaiians have the highest cancer mortality rates in their own homeland and one of the highest nationally. The overall goal of this project is to reduce cancer health disparities experienced by Native Hawaiians by maintaining and expanding 'Imi Hale - Native Hawaiian Cancer Network, to support the following goals: Goal 1: Facilitate an increase in knowledge of, access to, and use of beneficial biomedical procedures in the prevention and control of cancer and co-morbid conditions. Goal 2: Develop evidence based intervention research to increase use of beneficial biomedical procedures to control cancer and comorbid conditions. Goal 3: Train and promote the development of a critical mass of competitive researchers using community-base participatory research (CBPR) methods to reduce health disparities. In the Administrative Core, the PIs, program leaders, and community leaders comprise the Center Steering Committee (CSC). 'Imi Hale's work will be guided by a Community Council (CC) with lay, clinical, and academic members. 'Imi Hale leadership will also participate in trans-CNP activities with the CNP Strategic Committee. The Community Outreach Program will address awareness and access needs identified by selected facilities serving Native Hawaiians. This Program will: 1) develop, test, and disseminate culturally tailored educational materials/activities and cancer literacy; 2) expand capacity to provide Cancer Patient Navigation; 3) expand capacity to provide smoking cessation services and 4) facilitate community involvement in community based participatory research. This Program also will award and oversee Community Capacity Building grants to support health promotion and educational activities. The Research Program will include two CBPR projects: 1) A controlled trial of an obesity reduction intervention in Native Hawaiian worksites, and 2) A pilot research project to assess Native Hawaiian KAP related to bio-specimen collection. The Training Core will work with four current and four future junior faculty and post-doctoral students committed to careers in research to reduce cancer health disparities. 'Imi Hale will provide mentoring and training. We also will link junior researchers to training and mentoring opportunities.

描述(由申请人提供)： 夏威夷原住民的癌症死亡率在他们的家乡是最高的，也是全国最高的之一。该项目的总体目标是通过维护和扩大‘IMI Hale-夏威夷原住民癌症网络’来减少夏威夷原住民所经历的癌症健康差距，以支持 以下目标：目标1：促进在预防和控制癌症和合并症方面增加对有益生物医学程序的了解、获得和使用。目标2：发展基于证据的干预研究，以增加有益的生物医学程序的使用，以控制癌症和共病情况。目标3：利用以社区为基础的参与性研究(CBPR)方法，培训和促进发展一大批有竞争力的研究人员，以减少健康差距。在管理核心中，PI、计划负责人和社区负责人组成了中心指导委员会(CSC)。伊米·黑尔的工作将由一个社区委员会(CC)指导，该委员会由非专业人士、临床和学术人员组成。‘IMI Hale领导层还将与CNP战略委员会一起参加跨CNP活动。社区外展计划将解决选定的为夏威夷原住民服务的机构所确定的意识和准入需求。该计划将：1)开发、测试和传播文化定制的教育材料/活动和癌症知识；2)扩大提供癌症患者导航的能力；3)扩大提供戒烟服务的能力；4)促进社区参与以社区为基础的参与性研究。该计划还将授予和监督社区能力建设赠款，以支持健康促进和教育活动。该研究计划将包括两个CBPR项目：1)在夏威夷原住民工作场所进行减肥干预的对照试验，以及2)评估与生物标本采集相关的原住民KAP的试点研究项目。培训中心将与四名目前和四名未来的初级教员和博士后学生合作，致力于减少癌症健康差距的研究。伊米·黑尔将提供指导和培训。我们还将把初级研究人员与培训和指导机会联系起来。
