Community Engagement Core

解决健康差距问题需要一个跨学科的框架，该框架跨越科学和 整合多个学科的组织孤岛。同样重要的是两国之间的密切合作 研究人员、社区组织、医疗保健系统、公共卫生机构和其他 利益相关者。这样的协作方法有助于确保相关的、与背景相适应的研究 进行，重要的是，调查结果可以转化为长期可持续的社区和系统- 促进健康公平的水平变化。 东南部创新与合作组织的社区参与核心(CEC) 慢性疾病差异的公平解决方案(中心)将把机构、教职员工和 拥有一系列学科专业知识的社区合作伙伴-行为、社会、遗传和 环境保护。为了实现这一目标，CEC将把每个学术研究团队与一个当地联邦机构配对 合格的医疗中心(FQHC)/FQHC网络，将向所有人提供社区监督和意见 程序性方面。CEC教职员工还将促进旨在让 研究团队和FQHC合作伙伴以更具参与性的方式参与。该中心的目标是 社区参与核心(CEC)旨在培养以下人员之间富有成效的双向工作关系 旨在解决糖尿病、心血管疾病、肥胖和相关疾病的学术和联盟合作伙伴 条件。 CEC的作用将是确保这些合作伙伴的观点，代表非裔美国人和 整个东南部的拉美裔社区通过以下方式被纳入中心的优先事项和基础设施 制定以下具体目标： 具体目标1.建立一个社区咨询委员会，提供指导和方向 关于该中心的总体目标和优先事项，提供关于加强社区的战略的意见 参与、选择SDH措施，并加快实施、传播和采用 中心的发现。 具体目标2.为试点项目的选择和执行提供社区意见。 具体目标3.促进三个大型研究项目与当地FQHC之间的参与性伙伴关系 在制定、调整和实施适合社会和文化的干预措施方面 差距和结果可以很容易地根据FQHC的情况量身定做。

Tackling health disparities requires a transdisciplinary framework that cuts across scientific and organizational silos to integrate multiple disciplines. Equally important are strong collaborations between researchers, community- based organizations, healthcare systems, public health agencies, and other stakeholders. Such a collaborative approach helps ensure that relevant, contextually appropriate research is conducted and, importantly, that findings can be translated into long-term sustainable community and system- level changes that promote health equity. The Community Engagement Core (CEC) of the Southeast Collaborative for Innovative and Equitable Solutions to Chronic Disease Disparities (the Center) will bring together institutions, faculty and community partners with expertise across a range of disciplines – behavioral, social, genetic, and environmental. To accomplish this, the CEC will pair each academic study team with one local Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC)/ FQHC network which will provide community oversight and input to all programmatic aspects. CEC faculty will also facilitate dynamic ongoing process aimed at engaging the research teams and FQHC partners in a more participatory engagement approach. The goal of the Center’s Community Engagement Core (CEC) is to nurture productive bi-directional working relationships between the academic and consortium partners aimed at addressing diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and related conditions. The CEC’s role will be to ensure the perspective of such partners, representing African American and Latino communities throughout the Southeast, are integrated into the Center’s priorities and infrastructure by instituting the following specific aims: Specific Aim 1. Establish a Community Advisory Board that will provide guidance and direction on the Center’s overall goals and priorities, provide input regarding strategies to enhance community engagement, selection of SDH measures, and accelerate implementation, dissemination, and adoption of the Center’s findings. Specific Aim 2. Provide community input into the selection and execution of pilot projects. Specific Aim 3. Foster participatory partnerships between the three large research projects and local FQHCs in developing, adapting and implementing socially and culturally appropriate interventions addressing disparities and having outcomes which can be readily tailored to the FQHC context.
