Overcoming Barriers to Latino Participation in Alzheimer's Disease Research
There is a critical need to increase Latino participation in research on Alzheimer's disease and related disorders (ADRD). Applying principles of community-based participatory research, we convened a community advisory board (CAB) to identify barriers and recommend strategies to increase participation of older Latinos in a longitudinal observational research study of ADRD at the Shiley-Marcos Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. Six major barrier…
Creating Community Capacity at a Shared Site Intergenerational Program
We used a social organization framework to pilot a community- capacity building project at a shared site intergenerational program. Such programs possess potential to build relationships among participants that contribute social capital to the program and support individual development. Our approach addressed infrastructure development, intergenerational cross-training, and increased intergenerational programming. We conducted a multimethod, mult…

Shared site intergenerational care programs provide ongoing services simultaneously to old and young community members at a single facility, thereby, meeting the care needs of multiple generations.

We employed the results management model to identify program elements that may enhance or inhibit sustainability of intergenerational programming at a shared sit…

Qualitative analyses revealed that the women played an active role in shaping the course of their illness within their everyday lives. Pain and a decline in energy frequently interfered with completion of daily activities. To compensate, many women reduced …
