Tools and Resources:
A joint collaboration between the Association of Asian and Pacific Islander Health Organizations (AAPCHO) and the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), this toolkit was designed to educate and guide community health centers and researchers interested in collaborative research projects and building their research capacity. It is now available at cbprtoolkit.aapcho.org.
Inside, community health organizations and researchers will find a variety of information relating to community based participatory research (CBPR), including:
* Research readiness assessments
* Steps to building CBPR partnerships and trust
* How to develop a Memorandum of Understanding between partners
* A protocol for submitting a research proposal collaboratively
* A sample of a funded research proposal
 
An interactive web atlas that allows health centers the ability to create maps of their service areas, and even import their own data for mapping. HealthLandscape is available at www.healthlandscape.org

 

INTERNATIONAL HEALTH CENTER TOOLKIT

This toolkit is designed to help strengthen the capacity of U.S. health centers to assist with international development and humanitarian assistance, and to help provide a guide for those interested in working abroad. The toolkit provides anecdotal guidance as well as resources to help health center staff and health center organizations develop their own unique niche in the international world. Provides helpful information for health centers already engaged in international activities and thosethat want to start.  Please email research@nachc.org with any feedback, comments, or suggestions.

 

UNIFORM DATA SYSTEM

The Uniform Data System (UDS) is an annual reporting system used by all federally-funded health centers to report data on utilization, patient demographics, insurance status, managed care, prenatal care and birth outcomes, diagnoses, and financing. UDS assists with program management, policy development and overall accounting for the programs. It is maintained by the Bureau of Primary Health Care Office of Data, Evaluation, Analysis and Research, but is also available at NACHC. For more information, email research@nachc.org.
