The maternal and child health programs of the Public Health Service have always been directed to minority populations; however, the recent surges of immigrants from Asian and Central American countries have caused the agency to appraise its efforts to meet the special health needs of these people. Through grants for special projects of regional and national significance (SPRANS), the Office of Maternal and Child Health is funding projects to break down language, culture, and access barriers to health services for pregnant women, infants, and children. Recent and current SPRANS projects have taken innovative approaches to solving the special health problems of the minority populations. They range from a breastfeeding initiative in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to an areawide genetic service program in the Virgin Islands. Examples of projects that have been conducted are presented.
公共卫生服务部的母婴健康项目一直针对少数族裔人群；然而，近期来自亚洲和中美洲国家的移民激增，促使该机构评估其为满足这些人群特殊健康需求所做的努力。通过提供具有区域和国家意义的特殊项目补助金（SPRANS），母婴健康办公室正在资助一些项目，以消除孕妇、婴儿和儿童在获取医疗服务时面临的语言、文化和障碍。近期及当前的SPRANS项目采用了创新方法来解决少数族裔人群的特殊健康问题。这些项目涵盖从北马里亚纳群岛联邦的一项母乳喂养倡议到美属维尔京群岛的一项全区域基因服务项目。文中列举了已开展项目的实例。
