在阿拉斯加开展合作和开展健康差异研究的独特挑战 需要额外的支持，以增加拟议项目的整体影响潜力。我们提出 阿拉斯加原住民韧性研究合作中心（ANCHRR）行政核心（AC）作为一个 该战略旨在解决在阿拉斯加开展研究的后勤，行政和数据挑战。的 AC利用大学和部落地区的现有优势和资源， 成功的障碍包括：a）后勤距离，B）部落对研究的不信任，c）发展有价值的， 在小群体中进行严格的研究设计，以及d）传播和利用研究，以影响持久的 和可持续的变化。克服这些障碍，加强与 阿拉斯加原住民（AN）社区和部落组织的研究是通往 青春健康AC的总体目标是在阿拉斯加建立基础设施，以支持可持续发展， AN驱动的合作，重点研究a）减少青年自杀和自杀行为的风险 和B）加强社区的保护和复原力。咨询委员会的具体目标如下：1）提供 为整个ANCHRR进行旅行、财政和计划协调; 2）协调合作研究网络 这将包括：a）AN外部咨询理事会，B）协作中心和c）研究指导 委员会并为部落、州和大学利益攸关方提供伙伴关系发展和维护; 3)为阿拉斯加土著复原力研究提供数据、分析和外联支持; 以及4）协调和支持自杀预防研究成果的传播和翻译。 AC提供的研究和传播支持将加强全州范围内的伙伴关系努力。的 谘询委员会将与各持份者团体保持有效的双向沟通，以确保 研究具有相关性，并在整个国家的实际应用。AC将能够积极地 让来自该州所有部落地区的代表参与，进行有用和适当的研究， 认识到并加强社区的复原力，以减少自杀的负担，并有效地沟通 研究结果提供给阿拉斯加的政策制定者和部落领袖，以便研究更容易翻译 付诸实践

The unique challenges to developing collaborations and conducting health disparities research in Alaska require additional supports to increase the potential for overall impacts of the proposed project. We propose the Alaska Native Collaborative Hub for Resilience Research (ANCHRR) Administrative Core (AC) as a strategy for addressing the logistical, administrative and data challenges of conducting research in Alaska. The AC leverages existing strengths and resources within the university and tribal regions to address common barriers to success including; a) logistical distance, b) tribal mistrust of research, c) developing meritorious and rigorous research designs within small populations, and d) dissemination and utility of research to affect lasting and sustainable change. Overcoming these barriers and increasing the engagement with and ownership of research by Alaska Native (AN) communities and tribal organizations represents a critical step on the path to youth wellness. The AC has the overall goals to create an infrastructure in Alaska to support a sustainable and AN-driven collaboration focused on research to a) reduce risk for suicide and suicidal behavioral among youth and b) increase protection and resilience in communities. The AC has the following specific aims to: 1) provide travel, fiscal and program coordination for the overall ANCHRR; 2) coordinate a collaborative research network that will include, a) an AN External Advisory Council, b) Collaborative Hub and c) Research Steering Committee and provide partnership development and maintenance for tribal, state and university stakeholders; 3) provide data, analytical and outreach support for the Alaska Native Resilience Research Study (ANRRS); and 4) coordinate and support the dissemination and translation of suicide prevention research study results. Support for research and dissemination provided by the AC will enhance a statewide partnership effort. The AC will maintain effective two-way communications across various stakeholder groups to ensure that the research has relevance and practical applications across the state. The AC will make it possible to actively engage representatives from all of the state’s tribal regions, to conduct useful and appropriate research that recognizes and bolsters community resilience to reduce the burden of suicide, and to effectively communicate research findings to both Alaska policy makers and tribal leaders so that the research is more easily translated into practice.
