A CDC Prevention Research Center

The Center for Health Promotion and Prevention Research (CHPPR) is proud to be the only CDC Prevention Research Center (PRC) in the state of Texas. As one of 26 PRCs nationwide, CHPPR is part of a collaborative network of research centers focused on the study of how people and communities can avoid or counter the risks for chronic illnesses, particularly among underserved populations. 

Our mission is to conduct research to develop, evaluate, and disseminate health promotion and disease prevention programs, with a particular focus on decreasing cancer-related and chronic disease health disparities among African American and Hispanic populations. We leverage the substantial experience and expertise of our faculty and staff and employ cutting edge models and frameworks to accelerate the adoption and implementation of sustainable evidence-based interventions.
