COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT CORE ABSTRACT The Community Engagement Core will adopt a new approach to engagement in order to be responsive to the new theme of the Harvard Chan School-NIEHS Center, Re-Envisioning Environmental Health: Integrating Environmental Exposures of People and Place. Our main target stakeholders remain the community of Dorchester and health/public health professionals. The aims for the CEC are to 1) develop a long-term model of community engagement focused on dialogue, shared vision, and commitment to community-driven change; 2) foster initiatives and collaborations that address environmental health concerns expressed by community partners and other stakeholders; and 3) to assess the effectiveness of our engagement with the community. The new approach to engagement includes holding annual Engaging for Change workshops in the community with community leaders, stakeholders and Center members present. The objectives of these workshops are to highlight current exemplary practices related to mitigating environmental exposures and to define projects for the coming year through facilitated discussions. A new 3-tiered funding mechanism to support community organizations will provide funds for community projects at three different levels: Community Action Grants ($1K-3K), Facility Access Funds (up to $7,500) and pilot projects (up to $25K). Multi-directional exchange between the community and the Center will be fostered through the Engaging for Change workshops, the Stakeholder Advisory Board, interaction with the Research Core faculty plus community participation in the incubator sessions, and utilization of the Facilities Cores for statistical analysis, sample analysis, new data summaries, data visualization and GIS data mapping options in support of CEC aims. Collaboration with NIEHS and the Disaster Recovery Research (DR2) Program will continue as will collaboration with NIEHS Centers such as MIT and the University of North Carolina through the Cambridge Science Festival and the Boston Area Health Education program, respectively. The Region 1 Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Unit (PEHSU) and the Boston Public Health Commission will continue as partners. A new collaboration with Harvard Law School will support the more integrated approach to exposures i.e., to foster a “beyond science” approach to pollution problems and to increase the synergy between environmental exposure mitigation and local laws and regulations. The expanded membership of the Stakeholder Advisory Board (SAB) will increase community representation and expand the scope of community expertise available to the Center. Similarly the expectation for SAB participation has been augmented to include participation in annual workshops and project meetings.

社区参与核心 抽象的 社区参与核心将采用新的参与方法，以响应 哈佛陈氏商学院-NIEHS中心的新主题，重新展望环境健康：整合 人和地点的环境暴露。我们的主要目标利益相关者仍然是社区 多切斯特和健康/公共卫生专业人员。 CEC 的目标是 1) 开发长期模型 社区参与的重点是对话、共同愿景和对社区驱动变革的承诺； 2) 促进解决社区表达的环境健康问题的举措和合作 合作伙伴和其他利益相关者； 3) 评估我们与社区互动的有效性。 新的参与方法包括在社区举办年度参与变革研讨会 社区领袖、利益相关者和中心成员出席。这些研讨会的目标是 强调当前与减轻环境暴露相关的示范性做法，并确定以下项目： 通过促进讨论来迎接新的一年。支持社区的新三级资助机制 组织将为三个不同级别的社区项目提供资金： 社区行动补助金 （1000-3000 美元）、设施使用基金（最高 7,500 美元）和试点项目（最高 25000 美元）。 通过“参与”活动，促进社区与中心之间的多方位交流 变革研讨会、利益相关者咨询委员会、与研究核心教师的互动以及 社区参与孵化器会议，以及利用设施核心进行统计分析， 支持 CEC 的样本分析、新数据摘要、数据可视化和 GIS 数据映射选项 目标。与 NIEHS 和灾难恢复研究 (DR2) 计划的合作将继续下去 通过剑桥大学与麻省理工学院和北卡罗来纳大学等 NIEHS 中心合作 分别是科学节和波士顿地区健康教育计划。 1区儿科 环境卫生专业部门 (PEHSU) 和波士顿公共卫生委员会将继续作为 合作伙伴。与哈佛法学院的新合作将支持更加综合的风险暴露方法 即，培养解决污染问题的“超越科学”的方法，并增强各个领域之间的协同作用 环境暴露缓解和当地法律法规。 利益相关者咨询委员会 (SAB) 成员的扩大将增加社区代表性 扩大中心可用的社区专业知识的范围。同样对SAB的期望 参与范围已扩大，包括参加年度研讨会和项目会议。
