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.

项目概要 佐治亚州立大学公共学院及其合作伙伴提议建立预防研究中心 （GSU PRC）将重点关注移民的健康和健康差异。越来越多的共识 移民健康是一个重大的公共卫生问题。佐治亚州克拉克斯顿市是一个难民安置点 每年接纳约 1,500 名移民的移民门户。 GSU 已在 克拉克斯顿，主要通过周边大学校园，并在社区中活跃了一段时间 动员和移民健康。我们的目标是： 建立一个将设在克拉克斯顿分行的 PRC 周边学院；开展一项初步研究项目，重点关注移民的健康和福祉 儿童使用 SafeCare，这是一种经过验证的预防虐待和忽视儿童的方法；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；使用社区- 基于参与性的方法；建立一个跨学科研究团队来进行预防 干预研究；建立沟通机制，广泛传播调查结果，并翻译 研究社区中可操作的干预活动。 我们的总体战略是与移民社区和广大社区合作，创造一个安全的环境 为儿童提供一个能够减少不利社会决定因素影响的环境。我们提出的 研究项目将创建适合文化的 SafeCare 模型，开发和测试两个 在此特殊环境下实施的模型，并确定影响计划交付的更广泛因素。 我们将专门测试“任务转移”的实用性；也就是说，适当地移动可以由以下人员执行的任务 训练有素的人员，包括社区成员。 该项目将由公共卫生学院创始院长迈克尔·埃里克森博士和 罗德尼·林恩 (Rodney Lyn)，负责学术事务的副院长。拟建中华人民共和国的内部结构包括 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，我们设想我们的其中一项 主要产品将是一个可应用于多民族环境的多用途方法的工具箱。到 为此，提出了一项广泛的社区培训方案。我们预计与以下机构进行广泛合作 中华人民共和国与我们有着共同的利益和共同的挑战。
