The leaders of each core will be the same as theleadership assigned to the overarching CRMH cores.The focal point of PEACE will remain Community Participatory Research and Outreach (CPRO) Core, whichwill continue to provide the foundation (network and contacts) for the operation of all of the other Cores.Although not a part of PEACE, the Clinical Core of the CRMH will work with PEACE to address the clinicalneeds of persons involved with prevention and intervention studies.
