PROJECT SUMMARY The Georgia State University School of Public and its partners propose a Prevention Research Center (the GSU PRC) that will focus on the health and health disparities of migrants. There is a growing consensus that migrant health is a major public health issue. The City of Clarkston, Georgia is a refugee settlement and migrant gateway that accepts approximately 1,500 migrants per year. GSU has an established presence in Clarkston, primarily through the Perimeter College Campus, and has been active for some time in community mobilization and migrant health. Our aims are: to establish a PRC that will be housed at the Clarkston branch of Perimeter College; conduct an initial research project that focuses on the health and well-being of migrant of children using SafeCare, a validated approach to the prevention of child abuse and neglect; constitute a Community Advisory Board consisting of major agencies that play a role in migrant health; use community- based participatory approaches; develop an interdisciplinary research team that will conduct prevention intervention studies; institute communications mechanisms to disseminate findings widely, and translate research into operable intervention activities in the community. Our overall strategy is to work with the migrant community and the community-at-large to create a safe place for children in an environment that diminishes the impact of adverse social determinants. Our proposed research project will create culturally appropriate adaptations of the SafeCare model, develop and test two models for implementation in this special setting, and identify broader factors that influence program delivery. We will specifically test the utility of “task shifting;” that is, appropriately moving tasks that can be performed by less trained personnel, including community members. The project will be led by Dr. Michael Eriksen, Founding Dean of the School of Public Health, and Dr. Rodney Lyn, the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. The internal structure of the proposed PRC includes administrative and technical units concerned with communication, dissemination, and translation, as well as faculty from Perimeter College and other Schools and Colleges of GSU. The project will be guided by a Community Advisory Board, to be chaired by a member of the migrant community. Though specific prevention research will be the result of collaboration with community members and agencies, we envision that one of our major products will be a toolbox of multipurpose methods that can be applied in a multi-ethnic environment. To that end, an extensive program of community training is proposed. We foresee extensive collaboration with the PRCs that share our interests and challenges.

项目摘要 格鲁吉亚州立大学公共学院及其合作伙伴提议建立一个预防研究中心 (the GSU PRC）将重点关注移民的健康和健康差距。日益形成的共识 移民健康是一个重大的公共卫生问题。格鲁吉亚的克拉克斯顿市是一个难民定居点， 移民门户，每年接受大约1，500名移民。GSU已建立在 克拉克斯顿，主要是通过周边学院校园，并已在社区活跃了一段时间 动员和移徙者健康。我们的目标是：建立一个将设在克拉克斯顿分支的PRC 进行初步研究项目，重点是移民的健康和福祉， 儿童使用安全护理，一个有效的方法来防止虐待和忽视儿童;构成一个 社区咨询委员会，由在移民健康方面发挥作用的主要机构组成;利用社区- 建立一个跨学科研究小组， 干预研究;建立沟通机制，广泛传播研究结果， 研究社区可操作的干预活动。 我们的总体战略是与移民社区和广大社区合作， 儿童在一个环境中的地位，减少不利的社会决定因素的影响。我们提出的 一个研究项目将创建适合文化的SafeCare模型，开发和测试两个 在这一特殊背景下的实施模式，并确定影响计划交付的更广泛的因素。 我们将专门测试“任务转移”的效用;也就是说，适当地移动可以由 培训人员较少，包括社区成员。 该项目将由公共卫生学院的创始院长迈克尔埃里克森博士和博士。 罗德尼林恩，学术事务副院长。拟议的PRC的内部结构包括 与交流、传播和翻译有关的行政和技术单位，以及 来自周边学院和GSU其他学校和学院的教师。该项目将由一个 社区咨询委员会，由移民社区成员担任主席。虽然具体预防 研究将是与社区成员和机构合作的结果，我们设想我们的一个 主要产品将是一个可在多族裔环境中应用的多用途方法工具箱。到 为此，提出了一个广泛的社区培训方案。我们预计将与 与我们有着共同利益和挑战的中国。
