Improving Clinical and Public Health Outcomes through National Partnerships to Prevent and Control Emerging and Re-Emerging Infectious Disease Threats - Purpose: CDC guidelines and other government health recommendations are not effectively reaching Hispanic workers, a population at disproportionate risk of COVID-19 infection and other adverse health outcomes. CDC recommendations can best reach Hispanic workers through channels they already use and trust: Spanish-language health media and public health practitioners, like promotores de salud. RTI International and the Hispanic Communications Network (HCN) have teamed to help CDC bridge this gap by adapting and disseminating CDC guidelines through Spanish-language health media, training public health practitioners to provide critical infection control and prevention guidance in Hispanic communities, and evaluating the outcomes of these strategies. We selected two target populations at the frontlines of preventing and controlling infectious diseases, and they are familiar and trusted intermediaries to Hispanic communities.  Spanish-language media including influencers, radio, and social media platforms.  Public health practitioners including members of national public health associations and community health workers in Hispanic communities, known as promotores de salud. Expected Outcomes  Increased distribution of existing guidance for the prevention and control of emerging and reemerging infectious diseases to Spanish-language media and public health practitioners who work with Hispanic communities.  Adaptation of existing guidance to increase adoption in Spanish-language media and public health practitioners who work with Hispanic communities.  New guidance is informed by Spanish-language health media and public health practitioners who work with Hispanic communities.  Increased number of public health practitioners who are trained and understand best practices for the prevention and control of infectious diseases.  Increased adoption of guidance by Spanish-language media, media influencers, and public health practitioners to implement best practices that protect workers and community members from infectious diseases.  Increased number of public health practitioners who are trained and understand best practices for the prevention and control of infectious diseases.  Increased adoption of guidance by Spanish-language media, media influencers, and public health practitioners to implement best practices that protect workers and community members from infectious diseases.  New and existing infectious disease prevention and control resources are evaluated within the environment that evaluation professionals use them in, with feedback from public health practitioners and community members.  Improved clinical outcomes among Hispanic patients with or who are at increased risk for emerging or infectious diseases. Proposed Strategies  Disseminate CDC guidelines to HCN’s Spanish-language media network and public health practitioners.  Inform and adapt CDC materials to make them more useful for the public health practitioners who are preventing and controlling infectious disease threats for Hispanic workers by soliciting input from representative public health practitioners and members the Hispanic community.  Train public health practitioners on CDC guidelines designed to prevent and control infectious disease threats to Hispanic workers. Target public health practitioners working in Hispanic communities by leveraging SOPHE’s and NACDD’s infrastructure. Use HCN’s existing relationships with promotores de salud to create training toolkits and resources.  Evaluate the strategies and use the results for continuous improvement of materials and methods.
