Advancing the Centers of Excellence in Newcomer Health
HHS-CDC-NCEZID Forecasted CDC-RFA-CK-26-0197Description
Every year, thousands of newcomers, including refugees, immigrants and other lawful groups, resettle in the U.S. from overseas. CDC's Division of Global Migration and Health (DGMH) is focused on improving the health among newcomers through public health partnerships, science, and response. This funding opportunity will seek to improve newcomer health outcomes by establishing multi-state domestic medical examination (DME) surveillance to quickly and effectively identify infectious disease outbreaks; developing clinician training and clinical tools and resources to ensure efficient domestic medical screening; and implementing clinical consultation to assist with treatment of complex medical concerns. This work will build on efforts started with the Centers of Excellence in Newcomer Health (2015-2020) cooperative agreement that began development of a secure data repository of health information of recently arrived newcomers, assisted CDC in the revision of health screening guidelines for these populations, and created an online tool to assist clinicians with the CDC health screening guidelines.
