The proposed program for faculty research involves two components. The first component is a Mental Health Research - Infrastructure Development Center that will facilitate the development of the research infrastructure by developing plans for faculty research activities, faculty and student development activities, a technical/statistical core, and linkages to major research centers to facilitate the development of mentoring relationships. The second component involves Individual Faculty Research Projects. Two IRPs are proposed with four participating faculty members. Several graduate and undergraduate students will gain important mental health research experience through participating in the M-RISP program activities. The second component also involves faculty recruitment and development activities. The M-RISP faculty will participate in monthly meetings and summer training programs designed to enhance their knowledge and skills in conducting ethnic minority mental health research.
