Collaborations and Partnerships Core

正如总体的NTCC一样，CPC将以社区为基础的前瞻性研究（CBPR）和赋权理论的原则为指导，这是拟议的NTCC的哲学基础。CBPR是一种伙伴关系方法，平等地让社区和学术界的所有部门参与方案进程。CBPR最强有力的根源之一是赋权理论，该理论认为，在社区成员能够解决从外部引入的目标之前，他们必须被赋予解决自己的目标和关切的权力。这一进程始于真正的对话，每个人都平等参与，以确定共同的问题和解决办法。为社区重建提出了四项原则：“a）将社区成员作为平等伙伴纳入; B）将干预和评价结合起来; c）组织和方案灵活性; d）将项目作为所有人的学习机会。

Just as the overall NTCC, the CPC will be guided by the principles of the Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) and the Empowerment Theory, which are the philosophical underpinnings of the proposed NTCC. CBPR is a partnership approach that equally involves all segments of the community and academia in the programmatic process. One of the strongest roots of CBPR is the Empowerment Theory, which holds that before community members can address goals introduced from the outside, they must be empowered to address their own goals and concerns. This process begins with a true dialogue in which everyone participates equally to identify common problems and solutions. Four principles have been proposed for CBPR: "a) integration of community members as equal partners; b) integration of intervention and evaluation; c) organizational and programmatic flexibility; and d) utilization of the project as a learning opportunity for all.
