DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this proposed Preparedness and Emergency Response Research Center is to establish a collaborative research effort within the UCLA Center for Public Health and Disasters (CPHD) which will facilitate the conduct of translational public health systems research to strengthen and improve the ability of federal, state, and local public health agencies to prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural and human-induced (including terrorism) disasters. The Center for Public Health and Disasters will achieve this goal by concentrating the research focus on Priority Theme Number 3: Create and Maintain Sustainable Preparedness and Response Systems. The five independent research projects proposed in this program project application will achieve these specific aims through an integrated strategy to explore the inter-organizational cooperation that is necessary to create and sustain a public health system that is resilient to disasters. The five projects are: 1. Improving Collaboration between the School System and Public Health to Enhance Preparedness; 2. Building Effective Public Health Partnerships with Community-Based and Faith-Based Organizations for Disaster Readiness; 3. Developing an Integrated Data Management and Surveillance System to Identify Response Triggers; 4. Improving Emergency Preparedness for Vulnerable Populations through GIS; 5. Community Based Participatory Research to Develop Environmental Health Emergency Resilience. With these five subprojects and the proposed pilot projects, this research program project looks at the many aspects of the public health system. Two of the projects are conducting a coordinated survey of a national sample of health departments to explore how governmental public health agencies collaborate with schools, community-based organizations and faith-based organizations. The other three projects further these relationships to explore the use of specific tools that take into consideration these relationships. Hazardous events create a unique set of circumstances that simultaneously increase the need for public health and disrupt the ability of the public health system to respond to the health needs of the public. In order for public health systems to function in the chaotic and surge environment of a disaster, the very systems and the organizations which make up those systems must themselves be resilient to disasters. In this light, the research agenda of the UCLA Center for Public Health and Disasters aims to improve the resilience of the public health system.

描述(由申请人提供)：这个拟建的准备和应急研究中心的总体目标是在加州大学洛杉矶分校公共卫生与灾害中心(CPHD)内建立一个合作研究努力，以促进进行转换的公共卫生系统研究，以加强和提高联邦、州和地方公共卫生机构准备、应对自然和人为(包括恐怖主义)灾难并从中恢复的能力。公共卫生和灾害中心将通过将研究重点集中在优先主题3：创建和维护可持续的准备和反应系统来实现这一目标。本方案项目申请中提出的五个独立研究项目将通过探索组织间合作的综合战略来实现这些具体目标，这是创建和维持一个具有抗灾能力的公共卫生系统所必需的。这五个项目是：1.改善学校系统和公共卫生之间的合作，以加强准备工作；2.与社区和信仰组织建立有效的公共卫生伙伴关系，促进灾害准备；3.开发综合数据管理和监测系统，以确定反应的触发因素；4.通过地理信息系统改善对弱势人口的应急准备；5.以社区为基础的参与性研究，以发展环境卫生应急能力。通过这五个子项目和拟议的试点项目，该研究计划项目着眼于公共卫生系统的许多方面。其中两个项目正在对全国卫生部门样本进行协调调查，以探索政府公共卫生机构如何与学校、社区组织和宗教组织合作。其他三个项目进一步发展了这些关系，以探索考虑到这些关系的具体工具的使用。危险事件造成了一系列独特的情况，同时增加了对公共卫生的需求，并扰乱了公共卫生系统应对公众健康需求的能力。为了使公共卫生系统在混乱和突如其来的灾害环境中发挥作用，组成这些系统的系统和组织本身就必须具有抵御灾害的能力。鉴于此，加州大学洛杉矶分校公共卫生和灾害中心的研究议程旨在提高公共卫生系统的复原力。
