Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Health Disparities

Background:

  • Hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) rates are rising in minority populations.
  • A need exists for intensified, systemic, community-based strategies for hypertension prevention and control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the need for community-based strategies for hypertension and CVD in Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, and Asian/Pacific Islander Americans.
  • To recommend actionable strategies for the prevention, treatment, and control of hypertension in diverse ethnic groups.

Main Methods:

  • Convened a panel to address community-based strategies based on workshop participant needs.
  • Focused on strategies from community member inclusion in research to implementation for community action.
