?RECRUITING AND RETAINING A DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE PROGRAM? (RRDPHWP) - PROJECT ABSTRACT SUMMARY THE NATIONAL HISPANIC FOUNDATION (NHHF) PROPOSES TO DEVELOP THE RECRUITING AND RETAINING A DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE PROGRAM (RRDPHWP) IN COLLABORATION WITH THE CDC OVER FIVE YEARS, WITH THE GOAL TO DEVELOP A PROGRAM THAT RECRUITS AND RETAINS A DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE REPRESENTING THIS COUNTRY'S RACIAL AND ETHNIC POPULATIONS. THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES OF THE RRDPHWP ARE TO INCREASE AWARENESS AND DEVELOP BEST PRACTICES/TOOLS FOR RECRUITING AND RETAINING A DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH STAKEHOLDERS. A WELL-TRAINED, RACIALLY AND ETHNICALLY DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE CAN HAVE A CENTRAL ROLE IN MITIGATING HEALTH DISPARITIES AND IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF ANY EQUITABLE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM. THE RRDPHWP WILL COORDINATE: 1) AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE OF A DOZEN PUBLIC HEALTH, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND ACADEMIC DIVERSITY EXPERTS; 2) A LITERATURE SEARCH FOR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION AND PROGRESSION ACTIVITIES TO INCREASE DIVERSITY IN PUBLIC HEALTH; 3) THREE FACILITATED REGIONAL SUMMITS AND INTERVIEWS/FOCUS GROUPS TO OBTAIN FEEDBACK FROM KEY THOUGHT LEADERS, PUBLIC HEALTH AND ACADEMIC EXPERTS ON BEST PRACTICES AND BARRIERS TO RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION OF A RACIALLY AND ETHNICALLY DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE; 4) DEVELOP A RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION AND PROGRESSIVE STRATEGY WITH AI IN COLLABORATION WITH MINORITY INSTITUTIONS, PUBLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATIONS AND THE CDC; 5) COORDINATE A HEALTH COMMUNICATIONS CAMPAIGN TO FIND DIVERSE PUBLIC HEALTH SCHOOL ALUMNI AND OTHERS INTERESTED IN PUBLIC HEALTH POSITIONS AT THE NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL LEVELS; 6) DEVELOP A TRACKING AND MONITORING SYSTEM FOR THE PROGRAM; AND 7) PRODUCE REPORTS BASED ON THE PROGRAM EVALUATION PLAN WITH CDC. THE RRDPHWP WILL USE MULTIPLE STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION/PROGRESSION OF CLUSTERS OF RACIAL/ETHNIC CANDIDATES TO PURSUE CAREERS IN THE PUBLIC HEALTH SECTOR, EMPHASIZING UNDERREPRESENTED POPULATIONS FOR USE BY CDC AND LOCAL AND STATE PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. THE RRDPHWP WILL ESTABLISH PARTNERSHIPS WITH PUBLIC HEALTH SCHOOLS, MINORITY-SERVING EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS (HBCUS, HSIS, TCUS), STATE, COUNTY, AND CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, AND PUBLIC HEALTH MEMBERSHIP ASSOCIATIONS (APHA, AASPH, ASTHO, FASHP, NACCHO) TO SUPPORT THIS UNIQUE PROGRAM INITIATIVE.

NATIONAL HISPANIC MEDICAL ASSOCIATION PARTNERING AND COMMUNICATING TOGETHER - PROJECT ABSTRACTHIV/AIDS CONTINUES TO BE A SIGNIFICANT PUBLIC HEALTH CHALLENGE IN THE US. THE ANNUAL NUMBER OF NEW DIAGNOSES DECREASED 7% FROM 2014 TO 2018, BUT HISPANICS/LATINOS ACCOUNTED FOR 27% OF THE NEW HIV DIAGNOSES. AS THE LARGEST AND FASTEST-GROWING MINORITY IN THE US, COUPLED WITH DISPROPORTIONATE RATES OF HIV/AIDS, HISPANICS ARE CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT TO PRIORITIZE IN HIV PREVENTION AND CARE EFFORTS, ESPECIALLY AMONG MSM AND TRANSGENDER WOMEN. THE NATIONAL HISPANIC MEDICAL ASSOCIATION (NHMA) PROPOSAL FOR PARTNERING AND COMMUNICATING TOGETHER (CATEGORIES A AND B) WILL INCREASE HIV AWARENESS, REDUCE NEW HIV INFECTIONS, IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES AND SUPPORT CDC?S LET?S STOP HIV TOGETHER (TOGETHER) CAMPAIGN.THE PURPOSE OF THE NHMA PROJECT IS TO MAXIMIZE THE EFFECTIVENESS AND REACH OF THE TOGETHER CAMPAIGN BY STRATEGICALLY DISSEMINATING HIV PREVENTION DIGITAL AND SOCIAL MEDIA MESSAGING AND COMMUNICATIONS TO THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS IMPLEMENTING EVENTS IN KEY U.S. JURISDICTIONS THAT FOCUS ON HIV AWARENESS AND PREVENTION. NHMA WILL HOLD 10 EVENTS PER YEAR AT THE NHMA ANNUAL CONFERENCE AND CHAPTER FORUMS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, NEW YORK CITY, PUERTO RICO, AND KEY AREAS WITH PARTNERS TO REDUCE NEW HIV INFECTIONS AMONG HISPANICS AT HIGHEST RISK, INCREASE REFERRALS TO HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND CREATE IMPROVED HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR HISPANICS WITH HIV. SHORT-TERM OUTCOMES INCLUDE INCREASE EXPOSURE TO THE CDC?S HIV CAMPAIGN MATERIALS AND MESSAGES AND HIV-RELATED INFORMATION-SEEKING BEHAVIORS AMONG HISPANICS DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY HIV, WITH HIV AND HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS; AND INCREASE PARTNER ENGAGEMENT. THESE WILL LEAD TO INTERMEDIATE OUTCOMES THAT INCLUDE INCREASE CROSS-COMMUNITY SUPPORT AND FAVORABLE ATTITUDES FOR AND INCREASE HIV PREVENTION, TESTING, AND REFERRAL STRATEGIES; INCREASE HIV-RELATED COMMUNICATION AMONG PARTNERS, INCREASE REFERRALS AND LINKAGE TO CARE AMONG HISPANICS WITH HIV, AND INCREASE ADOPTION OF HIV SCREENING, PREVENTI ON, AND CARE AND TREATMENT RECOMMENDATIONS BY HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS. THE PROJECT WILL LEVERAGE NHMA?S EXISTING NETWORKS, ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES, AND COMMUNICATION PLATFORMS USING EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES THAT ACKNOWLEDGE THE DIVERSITY IN THE US HISPANIC COMMUNITY, INCLUDING DIFFERENCES IN MEDIA USE AND TRUST OF HEALTH INFORMATION SOURCES. A MASS MEDIA STRATEGY, INCLUDING AD PLACEMENTS AND BROADCASTS, WILL BE SUPPLEMENTED BY ONLINE DISSEMINATION ACTIVITIES, SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY, EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS, TAILORED NHMA AND PARTNER WEBSITES, UPDATED HISPANIC HEALTH PORTAL, AND A VIRTUAL HISPANIC HIV COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE. THESE STRATEGIES WILL BE COMPLEMENTED BY FACE-TO-FACE COMMUNICATION AND DISSEMINATION AT NHMA?S ANNUAL CONFERENCE (INCLUDING EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS AND NETWORKING ACTIVITIES), LOCAL CHAPTER FORUMS, WEBINARS OF MESSAGING OF THE TOGETHER CAMPAIGN. FINALLY, NHMA WILL WORK WITH NEW PARTNERS. NHMA PROPOSES A SPECIFIC EVALUATION STUDY TO EXAMINE IN GREATER DEPTH THE IMPACT OF CDC?S CAMPAIGN MESSAGING ON THE PARTICIPANTS? AWARENESS, ATTITUDES, AND BEHAVIORS, AND WHETHER THIS TRANSLATES INTO ORGANIZATIONAL AND COMMUNITY-WIDE CHANGES IN THEIR LOCAL AREAS. NHMA SERVES AS THE LEADING NATIONAL RESOURCE AND ADVOCATES TO IMPROVE HISPANIC HEALTH. NHMA WILL BRING A SUBSTANTIAL NETWORK OF COMMUNITY AND PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS, A DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF IMPACTING POLICY AND INFRASTRUCTURE FOR IMPROVED HISPANIC HEALTH, KNOWLEDGE OF AND EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, AND THE NATIONAL REACH TO EFFECTIVELY EXTEND CDC?S NATIONAL TOGETHER CAMPAIGN TO INCREASE HIV AWARENESS, REDUCE NEW HIV INFECTIONS AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES AMONG HISPANICS.
