Growing kalo (taro) to promote culture and health in the Continental US
Introduction: A growing number of Native Hawaiians live in the continental US. Without access to the 'āina (land) in Hawai'i, māla kalo (community gardens used to grow taro) may offer a space for these communities to increase access to traditional foods and create community connections. Methods: We formed a community-research hui to engage in a community-based participatory research process to explore potential benefits of a māla kalo. We used an…
Caring for loved ones as community
Caregiving interventions can reduce caregiver burden and promote caregiver competence, yet caregiving is rooted in culture, with differing impacts of the caregiving role. Culturally adapted interventions may better address the unique experiences of diverse family caregivers. In this exploratory study, we aimed to adapt the Savvy Caregiver Program (SCP), an evidence-based caregiving intervention, with a Native Hawaiian community in Hawaiʻi. First,…
Health and Well-being of Family (ʻOhana) Caregivers of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Adults Living with Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias
Introduction: We aimed to describe the health and well-being of family caregivers of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) adults living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD), explore cultural values related to caregiving, and characterize barriers and facilitators to their health and well-being. Methodology: Caregivers of NHPIs living with ADRD were recruited from across the United States to complete a multimethod study inc…
Food insecurity in urban American Indian and Alaska Native populations during the Covid-19 pandemic
High rates of food insecurity among American Indian and Alaska Native communities likely increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, despite the high prevalence of food insecurity, community-led efforts to reduce COVID-19 infection and increase vaccination uptake across Indian Health Service and Tribal healthcare facilities may have mitigated the negative impacts of the pandemic for families experiencing food insecurity. These successful app…
Native opportunities to stop hypertension
Introduction: American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) adults experience disproportionate cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality compared to other races, which may be partly attributable to higher burden of hypertension (HTN). Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) is a high-impact therapeutic dietary intervention for primary and secondary prevention of CVD that can contribute to significant decreases in systolic blood pres…

A lifespan perspective of structural and perceived social relationships, food insecurity, and dietary behaviors during the Covid-19 pandemic
Health Behaviors at the Onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Objectives: We examined perceived behavior change since implementation of physical distancing restrictions and identified modifiable (self-rated health, resilience, depressive symptoms, social support and subjective wellbeing) and non-modifiable (demographics) risk/protective factors. Methods: A representative US sample (N = 362) completed an online survey about potential risk/protective factors and health behaviors prior to the pandemic and afte…
