Description
The administrative and planning core supports the overall functions of the Southeast Center for Agricultural
Health and Injury Prevention, which is dedicated to transdisciplinary approaches to improving agricultural
occupational safety and health throughout our 10-state service region: Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia,
Alabama, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Florida. Accordingly, the
primary aims of the administrative and planning core are to orchestrate and "anchor'' the Center's research,
prevention/intervention, and education/translation activities In a single, harmonious entity. This firm
foundation for our concerted efforts ensures both the maximization of results (i.e., impact) and their fullest
possible dissemination. In keeping with this primary objective, the specific aims of the administrative and
planning core are to (1) provide clear, highly visible leadership across diverse Center projects and activities;
(2) ensure skilled administrative support for all Center projects and activities; (3) facilitate Center
cohesiveness, effectiveness, and reach through an established infrastructure for internal and external
communication, internal and external program monitoring, formal meetings, and strategic planning; and (4)
ensure good stewardship of sponsor awards and other fiscal resources through systematic and transparent
budget, accounting and reporting procedures. As a sub-unit of the University of Kentucky College of Public
Health, the Center's administrative and planning core Is exceptional in its effective support of a truly
transdisclplinary, team science approach to agricultural occupational safety and health in the Southeast. This
core Is built upon the experience and strengths of the Center's Director Robert McKnight, MPH, ScD; Deputy
Director Wayne Sanderson, PhD; an eight-member Internal Advisory Committee, a nine-member External
Advisory Committee consisting of diverse stakeholders and agricultural leaders; a formal structure and plan
for Interdisciplinary Coordination and program monitoring; and clear, transparent procedures for progress
reporting and fiscal management.
