Abstract

The Behavioral/Social Sciences and Community Outreach (BSSCO) Core will offer resources and staff to:(1) promote active involvement with South Florida community representatives and organizations in the UMD-CFAR;(2) provide D-CFAR investigators with consultation and resources that will aid them in developing andimplementing procedures to enhance recruitment and retention of community- and clinic-based studyparticipants; and(3) expand the ability of behavioral and social scientists to collaborate with clinical and laboratory scientists.In this D-CFAR application, the BSSCO Core will focus on specific areas that will further enhance the qualityof behavioral/social science HIV/AIDS research at UM and also look to stimulate the development of newHIV investigators, research initiatives and collaborations among the behavioral/social scientists, clinicalscientists and laboratory scientists. A special emphasis of this core will be to assist D-CFAR investigators indeveloping and maintaining meaningful community partnerships. Our three aims represent areas forimprovement that have been identified in our needs assessments and in critiques from our previouslysubmitted CFAR applications.
