This paper describes a multilevel youth violence prevention effort called SAFER Latinos (Seguridad, Apoyo, Familia, Educacion, y Recursos), a collaboration between The George Washington University School of Public Health and Health Services (GWU) and two key Latino community organizations.
To implement and evaluate an intervention addressing factors within the social ecology of an immigrant Latino community.
The intervention includes (1) Social promotores for family outreach and problem resolution; (2) Youth peer advocates at the high school level; (3) a drop-in center with support services for families and youth; and (4) community events, capacity building, and messages. Evaluation includes a baseline and follow-up surveys (N = 1,400) and focus groups.
(1) Community circumstances change, requiring regular program adaptation. (2) Community interventions with research face potential contradictions in purpose impacting management of the collaboration and model fidelity. (3) Etiological models tied to interventions may have to be revisited owing to changes in the character and dynamics of the immigrant community.
本文介绍了一项名为“更安全的拉丁裔”（Seguridad、Apoyo、Familia、Educacion和Recursos，即安全、支持、家庭、教育和资源）的多层次青少年暴力预防工作，这是乔治华盛顿大学公共卫生与健康服务学院（GWU）与两个主要的拉丁裔社区组织之间的合作项目。
实施并评估一项针对移民拉丁裔社区社会生态因素的干预措施。
该干预措施包括：（1）负责家庭外展和问题解决的社会促进者；（2）高中层面的青年同伴倡导者；（3）为家庭和青年提供支持服务的临时接待中心；（4）社区活动、能力建设及宣传信息。评估包括基线调查和随访调查（N = 1400）以及焦点小组。
（1）社区情况会发生变化，需要定期对项目进行调整。（2）社区干预与研究在目的上可能存在潜在矛盾，这会影响合作管理及模式保真度。（3）由于移民社区特征和动态变化，与干预措施相关的病因模型可能需要重新审视。
