Abstract

Academic medical centers and university extension programs remain underdeveloped collaborators, despite the complementary objectives between translational science and extension. This case study details the creation of a nationally unique interprofessional organizational structure between the University of Missouri (MU) Office of Extension and Engagement (MU Extension) and the MU School of Medicine to accelerate statewide reach of research and education discoveries using high-touch community health approaches. This article describes specific strategies used to systematically plan for: 1) creation and operation of the new structure, 2) routinization and institutionalizing the work, and 3) sustainability. We further outline challenges and next steps. The development of the backbone organization office of Health Outreach Policy and Education (HOPE) brings together the interprofessional expertise of five units with a common agenda to advance mutually reinforcing activities. HOPE is poised to make significant contributions to amplify MU’s land grant mission, garner additional grant funding, and advance the health of Missourians.

重新认识大学在其服务对象的健康和福祉中的作用

尽管转化科学与推广项目的目标相辅相成，但学术医学中心与大学推广项目之间的合作仍未得到充分发展。本案例研究详细介绍了密苏里大学（MU）推广与参与办公室（MU Extension）与密苏里大学医学院（MU School of Medicine）之间建立全国独一无二的跨专业组织结构的情况，该结构旨在利用接触面广的社区卫生方法，加快研究与教育发现在全州范围内的传播。本文介绍了用于系统规划的具体策略：1）新结构的创建和运行；2）工作的常规化和制度化；3）可持续性。我们进一步概述了面临的挑战和下一步措施。健康外联政策与教育办公室（HOPE）这一骨干组织的发展汇集了五个单位的跨专业专业知识，并制定了共同的议程，以推进相辅相成的活动。HOPE 将为加强密苏里大学的土地赠款使命、获得更多赠款资金以及促进密苏里人的健康做出重大贡献。

期刊介绍： Evaluation and Program Planning is based on the principle that the techniques and methods of evaluation and planning transcend the boundaries of specific fields and that relevant contributions to these areas come from people representing many different positions, intellectual traditions, and interests. In order to further the development of evaluation and planning, we publish articles from the private and public sectors in a wide range of areas: organizational development and behavior, training, planning, human resource development, health and mental, social services, mental retardation, corrections, substance abuse, and education.
