Dissemination and implementation of evidenced based treatments for substance abuse disorders and HIV for justice involved populations

 描述(由申请者提供)：惩教卫生学术和卫生政策会议是一年一度的跨学科科学会议，面向卫生服务研究人员、政策制定者和临床医生，他们关注生成和传播经验证据，以支持在刑事司法监督下的人群的临床护理。这次会议为网络和协作提供了一个独特的机会。该项目将通过完成两个实施科学项目来扩大会议的影响，以改善涉及司法的人群的护理结果。这些项目将集中于：药物滥用评估和治疗，特别强调社区重新进入期间的护理过渡；以及改善丙型肝炎感染者筛查和护理的战略。这两个项目将强调对艾滋病毒感染人群特有的这些问题的关怀会议的具体目标：1.吸引一个由惩教卫生研究人员、临床医生、卫生政策专家和州、县和联邦惩教行政人员组成的跨学科小组，以促进联网、介绍研究结果、集思广益，并讨论创新的干预措施，以改善被拘留者的结果，其中95%的人将重返社区。2.在会议范围内设计和实施为期两天的轨道，重点是落实保健服务研究产生的循证临床做法，以解决刑事司法环境中最紧迫的需要：药物使用障碍和艾滋病毒/丙型肝炎感染。3.通过提供竞争性的会议奖学金、导师方案以及在会议和出版的会议记录中联网和传播其工作的机会，增加职业生涯早期的研究人员的数量和多样性，重点关注涉及司法的人群中的药物滥用、艾滋病毒/丙型肝炎感染和行为健康障碍的综合征。方法：每年发布一次论文征集，用于提交演示文稿和科学海报。每一次会议将分别在第一天和第二天包括一次主旨报告和一次全体报告，随后将举行专题分组会议，以便在同行审查后接受报告和海报。会议还将包括计划中的会议，以促进对研究设计和联网研究项目的讨论。描述了实施科学跟踪学习干预的时间表。有兴趣从事刑事司法保健研究的初级调查人员可获得竞争性奖学金。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Academic and Health Policy Conference on Correctional Health is an annual interdisciplinary scientific meeting for health services researchers, policy makers and clinicians concerned with the generation and dissemination of empirical evidence to support clinical care for populations under criminal justice supervision. This conference provides a unique opportunity for networking and collaboration. This project will expand the impact of the conference by completing two implementation science projects toward improving care outcomes for justice-involved populations. These projects will focus on: substance abuse evaluation and treatment, with particular emphasis on care transitions during community reentry; and strategies to improve screening and care for individuals infected with hepatitis C. Both projects will emphasize care for these problems unique to the HIV-infected populations Specific aims for the conference: 1. Attract an interdisciplinary group of correctiona health researchers, clinicians, health policy experts and state, county and federal correctional administrators to facilitate networking, present research findings, brainstorming, and discussing innovative interventions to improve outcomes for detainees, 95% of whom will return to the community. 2. Design and implement a two-day track within the conference focused on the implementation of evidence-based clinical practices that emerge from health services research addressing the most pressing needs in criminal justice settings: substance use disorders and HIV/HCV infections. 3. Increase the number and diversity of investigators early in their careers focused on the syndemics of substance abuse, HIV/HCV infections, and behavioral health disorders in justice-involved populations by providing competitive conference scholarships, mentorship programs, and opportunities to network and disseminate their work at the conference and in published proceedings. Methods: A call for papers is issued annually for submission of presentations and scientific posters. Each conference will include a keynote and a plenary presentation on the first and second day respectively and be followed by themed breakout sessions for presentations and posters accepted following peer review. The conference will also include planned sessions to facilitate discussion of research design and networked research projects. A schedule for the implementation science track learning intervention is described. Competitive scholarships are available for junior investigators interested in pursuing research on criminal justice health care.
