DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As one of only two new comprehensive centers funded in the 2009-2014 cycle, the CWRU Prevention Research Center for Healthy Neighborhoods has established itself as a highly responsive and collaborative community-based research center with strong capacity for conducting rigorous and innovative research that is closely aligned with community and CDC priorities. Our multidisciplinary academic-community team includes community-based researchers, local and state departments of health and other health and community organizations, neighborhood leaders, and community residents. Together, we will accomplish the following goals during our next five years: (1) work closely with our Network of Community Advisors (NOCA) to set research and programmatic priorities and ensure the community's voice informs our work; (2) with NOCA and Affiliated Faculty, carry out a comprehensive 5-year research agenda that builds upon our most promising work, maintains our commitment to improving nutritious food access (NFA) among low income residents through our new core project, and seeks new opportunities to identify and disseminate evidence-based approaches to improve the health of disadvantaged residents; (3) foster and build capacity for rigorous community-engaged research among our faculty, students, and community partners through formal training programs, seminars, and mentoring; (4) build community capacity for improving public health practice by providing technical assistance, evaluation services and focused-content expertise to community partners, especially local and state departments of health; (5) carry out a center-wide communication and dissemination (C&D) plan that integrates C&D activities into research, training, evaluation, and community activities and establishes the PRCHN as a central resource for local data and evidence-based approaches to preventing and reducing chronic disease; and, (6) conduct an ongoing, comprehensive evaluation of the PRCHN, to ensure that the Center's goals are achieved on time and on budget and to contribute to the national evaluation of PRCs. The goal of our applied public health dissemination and implementation core research project is to work with community partners to create and use a rapid-response system for evaluating and improving the reach, adoption, and impact of farmers' markets, Produce Perks, and the EFNEP among low-income neighborhoods in Cleveland. A community popular opinion leader dissemination strategy will be adapted and tested. This research will be conducted in partnership with our NOCA, Cuyahoga Office of Job and Family Services, Ohio State University-Extension, Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Food Policy Coalition, and Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority.

描述（由申请人提供）：作为2009-2014年资助的仅有的两个新的综合中心之一，CWRU健康社区预防研究中心已成为一个高度响应和协作的社区研究中心，具有很强的能力进行严格和创新的研究，与社区和疾病预防控制中心的优先事项密切相关。我们的多学科学术社区团队包括社区研究人员、地方和州卫生部门以及其他卫生和社区组织、社区领导人和社区居民。在接下来的五年里，我们将共同实现以下目标：(1)与我们的社区顾问网络（NOCA）密切合作，确定研究和项目重点，并确保社区的声音影响我们的工作；(2)与NOCA和附属学院一起，开展一个全面的5年研究议程，以我们最有前途的工作为基础，通过我们的新核心项目，保持我们对改善低收入居民营养食品获取（NFA）的承诺，并寻求新的机会，以确定和传播循证方法，改善弱势居民的健康；(3)通过正式的培训计划、研讨会和指导，在我们的教师、学生和社区合作伙伴中培养和建设严格的社区参与研究的能力；(4)通过向社区伙伴，特别是地方和州卫生部门提供技术援助、评估服务和重点内容专门知识，建设社区改善公共卫生做法的能力；(5)实施一项全中心范围的沟通和传播（C&D）计划，将C&D活动整合到研究、培训、评估和社区活动中，并将PRCHN建立为预防和减少慢性病的地方数据和循证方法的中心资源；(6)对PRCHN进行持续、全面的评估，以确保中心的目标按时、按预算实现，并为国家对prc的评估做出贡献。我们的应用公共卫生传播和实施核心研究项目的目标是与社区伙伴合作，创建和使用一个快速反应系统，以评估和改善农贸市场、农产品补贴和EFNEP在克利夫兰低收入社区中的覆盖范围、采用情况和影响。将调整和检验社区民意领袖传播战略。这项研究将与我们的NOCA，凯霍加工作和家庭服务办公室，俄亥俄州立大学推广，克利夫兰-凯霍加县食品政策联盟和凯霍加大都会住房管理局合作进行。
