What it funds

Purpose and description as published on the California Grants Portal.

Bolster ADRD data among disparate groups by increasing data collection and building upon existing evidence of ADRD prevalence in populations historically underrepresented in research. Disaggregating data for misrepresented populations such as Asian Americans and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders. Assess the frequency of utilization populations of focus. Outreach of existing resources and services to impacted and underrepresented populations.

Description

Our goal is that these research projects lead to an advancement of knowledge regarding Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, with a focus on understanding and addressing the greater prevalence of dementia in women and communities of color and also focus on populations historically underrepresented in research including the LGBTQ+ community, either in the academic or research field and to clinical implementation, including new treatment methodologies, or new detection and diagnosis innovations. CDPH would like to improve the capacity of the public health, health care delivery, and long-term care services and support systems in California for persons with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Additionally, a better understanding of underrepresented or disparate populations to ensure implementation of culturally responsive preventive measures, long-term care services, and support systems at the community level that fosters health equity and reduces health disparities experienced by vulnerable communities in California.
