我们提议的健康公平干预研究中心(CHIIR)是马萨诸塞大学波士顿和伍斯特校区的研究人员、教育工作者和社区积极分子之间跨学科合作的产物，通过一个广泛的计划无缝地结合在一起，以消除健康差距。CHIIR将利用现有的资源，这些资源由美国国立卫生研究院资助的临床和转化科学奖、我们的疾控中心资助的伍斯特县预防研究中心、几个 加斯顿拉丁裔社区发展和公共政策研究所、威廉·门罗·特罗特黑人文化研究所和新英格兰美洲原住民研究所。 我们的具体目标是：(1)通过有效管理CHIIR资源、研究人员和社区网络、丰富活动和研究成果的传播，产生协作和协同作用；(2)通过使用CHIIR逻辑模式协调对每个组成部分和整个中心的定期和系统监测，确保CHIIR达到所有规定的目标；(3)举办两个备受瞩目的综合、参与和提升，以消除差异(SEED)研讨会(第3年和第5年)；以及(4)参与积极的外联活动，包括与其他NCMHD英才中心的合作，以及 通过互联网传播仓库等多个场所。SEED研讨会将利用组织发展的前沿发展，将：(1)综合来自CHIIR教职员工、学生和社区的大量数据；(2)产生新的发现和资源，以消除健康差距；以及(3)随着我们完善中心的使命和愿景，绘制一条明确的前进道路，CHIIR反映了致力于与服务不足的人群合作的不同种族、有成就的跨学科研究人员的综合才华。虽然行政核心将管理日常活动，如日常业务和资源分配，但它通过种子研讨会和互联网传播库等活动提供科学创新。

Our proposed Center for Health Equity Intervention Research (CHEIR) is the product of inter-disciplinary collaboration among researchers, educators, and community activists at the Boston and Worcester campuses of the University of Massachusetts, seamlessly woven together through a broad-based plan to eliminate health disparities. CHEIR will leverage existing resources available through our NIH-funded Clinical and Translational Science Award, our CDC-funded Worcester County Prevention Research Center, several units at the two participating UMass campuses, and three ethnic centers: the Gaston Institute for Latino Community Development and Public Policy, the William Monroe Trotter Institute for the Study of Black Culture, and the New England Institute for Native American Studies. Our Specific Aims are to: (1) Generate collaboration and synergy by effectively managing CHEIR resources, investigator and community networking, enrichment activities, and dissemination of research findings; (2) Ensure CHEIR meets all stated goals by coordinating the regular and systematic monitoring of each component and the overall center using the CHEIR Logic Mode; (3) Conduct two high-profile Synthesis, Engagement, and Elevation to Eliminate Disparities (SEED) Symposia (Years 3 and 5); and (4) Engage in vigorous outreach activities, including collaboration with other NCMHD Centers of Excellence, and through multiple venues such as the Internet Dissemination Depot. Drawing on cutting-edge developments in organizational development, the SEED Symposia will: (1) Synthesize a vast array of data from our CHEIR faculty, students, and communities; (2) Generate new findings and resources to eliminate health disparities;and (3) Map a clear path forward as we refine our center's mission and vision CHEIR reflects the combined talent of ethnically diverse, accomplished, and inter-disciplinary researchers devoted to working with under-served populations. Although the Administrative Core will manage routine activities, such as day-to-day operations and resource allocation, it offers scientific innovation through activities such as the SEED Symposia and the Internet Dissemination Depot.
