ADMINISTRATIVE CORE: ABSTRACT The Administrative Core (AC) provides the critical leadership and identity role for the CHARTER: (Center for) Children's Health Assessment, Research Translation, and Combating Environmental Racism. The AC builds on a strong foundation of academic and research leadership, and a record of accomplishment in research in children's environmental health and communication science. The purpose of the AC is to provide support for the overall goals of the Center in the development of effective strategies to translate research findings of importance to children's environmental health to relevant stakeholders in the community, academia and among healthcare providers. The AC builds on established outreach and collaboration with communities representing Black communities impacted by environmental exposure and strong connections with health providers. The AC will coordinate and integrate all of the components of the overall center and promote activities to assure smooth communication and coordination. In addition, the AC will represent the center in the CEHRT network and support the national coordinating center. The AC will work to promote the development of young investigators in CEH and translation science, particularly emphasizing the support and mentorship of individuals from underrepresented groups. The outcomes of CHARTER will be monitored through a comprehensive evaluation strategy to examine the impact of the center on scholarship outputs, translational science outcomes, and health and societal benefits derived from CHARTER support.
