DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The South Side of Chicago is a 95 square mile region including 34 of Chicago's 77 community areas, and is one of the nation's largest contiguous urban African American communities (72% of 1.1 million people). Seven of the 8 poorest communities in Chicago are found on the South Side; 5 of these hug the University campus which resides in one of the wealthiest areas of the city. Twelve percent of the population is 65 or older; the largest population of older adults in Chicago resides in Chatham, a South Side community. Comparing Chicago Department of Public Health 2004 surveillance data to Healthy People 2010 indicators, health of individuals living on Chicago's South Side lags far behind that of the rest of the city and the nation. This is despite the centrally-located University of Chicago campus and Medical Center. Yet, even in the poorest communities, vitality is seen in strong community organizations, robust social networks, rich cultural and faith traditions, and resilient small businesses. This application proposes to leverage the joint assets of the South Side community with the University of Chicago to build transformative, sustainable, community-linked health research infrastructure that also delivers immediate benefit to this population by creating transparency and efficiency in the health and human services sector. The specific aims leverage institutional, foundation and NIH investments to: 1) Design, build and open to the public, an internet-based information exchange, that matches: a) individuals with health and human services, and b) health researchers and funders with data to monitor and respond to health and human services sector dynamics; 2) Hire, train, deploy and track impact of 3 full-time Community Health Information Exchange Fellows (CHIEFs) who will help build the Exchange, facilitate commitment and uptake, and disseminate findings and knowledge for mutual benefit of all partners; 3) Build an economic sustainability model and plan and metrics for tracking market dynamics including volume, activity, performance, and the geography of supply and demand. The Chicago Health and Aging Services Exchange will be developed for the South Side of Chicago via a mutually beneficial collaboration between community leaders and university researchers, with input from an Exchange Advisory Board that includes, among many experts, faith leaders, philanthropists, and executive-level representatives from the offices of the Governor of Illinois and the Mayor of Chicago. The vision is to develop a scalable prototype to transform efficiency in the health and human services sector while enhancing community-linked health research capacity on a city, state, and even a global scale. The long-term objective of this work is to build the team, processes, and technology to address a major infrastructural matching problem in the health and human services sector. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Chicago Health and Aging Services Exchange is an internet-based allocation mechanism that will match people most in need of services with the organization best suited to provide care. The downloadable data from this same site will facilitate social service evaluation and health research. The Exchange is being built by a diverse team of community and university partners for health research.

描述（由申请人提供）：芝加哥南部是一个95平方英里的地区，包括芝加哥77个社区中的34个，是全国最大的连续城市非洲裔美国人社区之一（110万人口的72%）。芝加哥8个最贫穷的社区中有7个位于南区;其中5个拥抱位于该市最富裕地区之一的大学校园。百分之十二的人口是65岁或以上;芝加哥最大的老年人人口居住在南部社区查塔姆。将芝加哥公共卫生部2004年的监测数据与2010年的健康人指标进行比较，生活在芝加哥南区的个人的健康状况远远落后于城市和全国其他地区。尽管位于市中心的芝加哥大学校园和医疗中心。然而，即使在最贫穷的社区，也可以看到强大的社区组织、强大的社交网络、丰富的文化和信仰传统以及有活力的小企业的活力。该申请建议利用南区社区与芝加哥大学的联合资产，建立变革性的，可持续的，与社区联系的健康研究基础设施，通过在健康和人类服务部门创造透明度和效率，为这一人群带来直接利益。具体目标是利用机构、基金会和国家卫生研究所的投资：1）设计、建立并向公众开放一个基于互联网的信息交换平台，使：a）个人与卫生和人类服务相匹配，B）卫生研究人员和资助者与数据相匹配，以监测和应对卫生和人类服务部门的动态; 2）雇用、培训、部署和跟踪3名全职社区卫生信息交流研究员（CHIEF）的影响，他们将帮助建立交流，促进承诺和吸收，并传播研究结果和知识，使所有合作伙伴互利; 3）建立经济可持续性模型，并制定计划和指标，以跟踪市场动态，包括数量，活动，绩效以及供需地理位置。芝加哥健康和老龄化服务交易所将通过社区领导人和大学研究人员之间的互利合作为芝加哥南部开发，并由交易所咨询委员会提供意见，其中包括许多专家，信仰领袖，慈善家以及伊利诺伊州州长和芝加哥市长办公室的行政代表。其愿景是开发一个可扩展的原型，以提高卫生和人类服务部门的效率，同时增强城市，州甚至全球范围内与社区相关的卫生研究能力。这项工作的长期目标是建立团队，流程和技术，以解决卫生和人类服务部门的主要基础设施匹配问题。 公共卫生关系：芝加哥健康和老龄服务交换是一个基于互联网的分配机制，将最需要服务的人与最适合提供护理的组织相匹配。从这个网站下载的数据将有助于社会服务评估和健康研究。该交流是由社区和大学合作伙伴的健康研究的多元化团队建立的。
