Abstract In response to PAR-18-749 (R24) to build collaborative teams to improve methods and outcomes regarding research participant recruitment and retention, we propose the New Jersey Minority Aging Collaborative (NJMAC) to improve research recruitment and retention and support culturally targeted and linguistically appropriate research for African American, Hispanic, and Asian older adults and their families. While NJ ranks as the 2nd wealthiest state by per capita income and 12th best in the country for overall health, there is a paradox in considering other population health rankings where New Jersey ranks one of the worst in disparity in health status (46th). For older adults in NJ, there are equally as large disparities when it comes to health and well-being especially among minority older adults, which is exacerbated by a lack of engagement in biomedical and social research. Additionally, there has been inadequate integration of community support necessary to empower minority communities in NJ to be fully engaged in biomedical research. These impediments necessitate further development and implementation of sustainable and equitable partnership among community partners and academic institutions through collaborative development, reciprocal transfer of knowledge, and expertise to improve recruitment and retention among minority older adults. Using an adaptive and reciprocal “collective impact” design, the NJMAC will leverage and build team- science in NJ through Rutgers Institute for Health and Cooperative Extension in partnership with community organizations to foster trust with minority older adults and achieve greater intergration of community needs and research efforts. With a state-wide infrastructure and track record of culturally relevant community-research engagement, we aim to: 1) Build and sustain research capacity among academic and community partners through building a collaborative community steering committee and explore trust between collaborators to fully understand the barriers, challenges, and racial/ethnic and socio-cultural contexts of conducting research in and with African-American, Hispanic, and Asian aging populations across NJ; 2) Engage community members, their families, and partners through culturally targeted and linguistically appropriate reciprocal education, training, and measurements; manage a research repository to understand and document trust and feasibility of research recruitment and retention; 3) Expand, catalyze, and assess team science as a critical platform for collaborative research on aging populations and leverage an iterative platform for process and outcome evaluation among African-American, Hispanic, and Asian populations; and 4) Translate findings and lessons learned through the NJMAC to inform future academic-community partnerships in aging and AD-ADRD research; collaboratively build research resource to advance processes for recruitment/retention in diverse community settings at local and national levels. Findings and lessons learned will have significant implications for building community-academic research partnerships, culturally relevant research, practice, and policy.

摘要 响应PAR-18-749（R24），建立协作团队，以改进以下方面的方法和成果： 研究参与者的招募和保留，我们建议新泽西少数民族老龄化协作 （NJMAC）改善研究人员的招聘和留用，并在文化上和语言上提供支持 为非裔美国人，西班牙裔和亚洲老年人及其家庭进行适当的研究。虽然NJ排名 作为人均收入第二富有的州和全国整体健康状况第12好的州， 考虑到其他人口健康排名，新泽西是差距最大的地区之一，这是一个悖论 健康状况（46）。对于新泽西州的老年人来说，在健康方面也存在同样大的差距， 特别是少数群体老年人的福祉，由于缺乏生物医学的参与， 和社会研究。此外，没有充分整合必要的社区支助， 使新泽西州的少数民族社区能够充分参与生物医学研究。这些障碍 必须进一步发展和执行可持续和公平伙伴关系， 社区伙伴和学术机构通过合作发展，相互转让， 知识和专门知识，以改善少数群体老年人的招聘和保留。 使用适应性和互惠的“集体影响”设计，NJMAC将利用和建立团队， 通过罗格斯大学健康与合作推广研究所与社区合作， 组织，以促进与少数群体老年人的信任，并实现社区需求的更大整合， 研究工作。拥有全州范围的基础设施和文化相关社区研究的记录 参与，我们的目标是：1）建立和维持学术和社区合作伙伴之间的研究能力 通过建立协作社区指导委员会，探索协作者之间的信任， 了解进行研究的障碍，挑战和种族/民族和社会文化背景， 与新泽西州的非洲裔美国人、西班牙裔和亚洲老龄化人口; 2）吸引社区成员， 通过有文化针对性和语言适当的互惠教育， 培训和测量;管理研究库，以了解和记录信任和可行性， 研究招募和保留; 3）扩展，催化和评估团队科学作为一个关键平台， 对老龄化人口进行合作研究，并利用迭代平台进行过程和结果 在非洲裔美国人、西班牙裔和亚洲人群中进行评估;以及4）翻译调查结果和经验教训 通过NJMAC学习，为未来老龄化和AD-ADRD的学术-社区伙伴关系提供信息 研究;协作建立研究资源，以推进招聘/留住不同 地方和国家一级的社区环境。调查结果和经验教训将产生重大影响 建立社区学术研究伙伴关系，文化相关的研究，实践和政策。
