PROJECT SUMMARY - OUTREACH AND RECRUITMENT CORE The Outreach, Recruitment and Engagement (ORE) Core will contribute to the goals of the Northwestern ADRC with a focus on the theme of Heterogeneity in Aging and Dementia. The ORE Core will achieve its aims by leveraging the independently funded components of the Mesulam Center: the Neurobehavior Clinic, Clinical Trials and Observational Consortia, and Miller Family Life Enrichment & Non-Pharmacologic Intervention Programs. The ORE Core will focus outreach, community engagement and recruitment on Mesulam Center research priorities, i.e., primary progressive aphasia (PPA), behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), healthy adults without cognitive impairment (“normal controls” and SuperAging), and Mid-life Onset Alzheimer’s Disease (MOAD), with a focus on recruiting underrepresented groups. The ORE Core will promote NIA and NAPA mandates specifically through the following goals: 1) Optimize recruitment of participants according to ADRC research priorities into the Clinical Core and academic research studies through the Neurobehavior Clinic and targeted community engagement. 2) Provide outreach and community engagement strategies for the recruitment and retention of underrepresented groups to the Northwestern ADRC according to center research priorities. 3) Support the engagement of research participants and their families, particularly those who live at a distance, through novel and adaptable life enrichment programs and tailored non-pharmacological interventions, maintaining our center’s long-term commitment to our approach of “therapeutic encounters.” 4) Initiate and coordinate public education programs in conjunction with city, state and national entities. The ORE Core will pursue these goals through the provision of disease education, counseling and support for the psychosocial needs of ADRC patients and caregiving families, the design and evaluation of innovative programs that support both patients’ and caregiving families’ strength and resilience, and the engagement of collaborative local community partnerships for the purposes of research recruitment and retention. We will continue our work through outreach and engagement of underrepresented groups, the Clinical Core and other center research teams, retention via non-pharmacological interventions and incorporation of a psychosocial pathway, direct ‘phone call only’ follow-up for later stage participants for retention and commitment to brain donation, and maintaining a leadership role in local and national collaborations and educational programs that focus on the heterogeneity of disease, symptoms and needs for patient support and caregiver education and resources.

项目摘要--外联和征聘核心 外联、征聘和接触(ORE)核心将有助于实现西北大学的目标 ADRC，重点关注老龄化和痴呆症的异质性主题。ORE核心将实现其目标 通过利用梅苏拉姆中心独立资助的组成部分：临床神经行为诊所 试验和观察联盟，以及米勒家庭生活丰富和非药物干预 程序。ORE核心中心将把外展、社区参与和招聘工作集中在梅苏拉姆中心 研究重点，即原发性进行性失语(PPA)、行为变异型额颞叶痴呆 (BvFTD)、轻度认知障碍(MCI)、无认知障碍的健康成年人(“正常对照”和 和中年起病阿尔茨海默病(MOAD)，重点是招募人数不足的人 组。ORE核心将具体通过以下目标促进国家执行机构和国家适应行动方案的任务： 1)根据ADRC临床核心研究的优先顺序，优化参与者的招募 通过神经行为诊所和有针对性的社区参与进行学术研究。 2)为招聘和保留以下人员提供外联和社区参与战略 根据中心的研究优先事项，向西北ADRC提供的群体代表不足。 3)支持研究参与者及其家人的参与，特别是那些生活在 通过新颖和适应性强的生活丰富计划和量身定做的非药物治疗，保持距离 干预，维持我们中心对“治疗接触”方法的长期承诺。 4)与市、州和国家实体共同发起和协调公共教育项目。 ORE核心将通过提供疾病教育、咨询和支持来实现这些目标 ADRC患者和照顾者家庭的心理社会需求、创新的设计和评估 支持患者和照顾者家庭的力量和韧性的计划，以及 地方社区合作伙伴关系，用于研究、招聘和保留。我们会 通过与代表性不足的群体、临床核心和其他组织进行接触和接触，继续我们的工作 中心研究团队，通过非药物干预保留和纳入心理社会 路径，对后期参与者的保留和对大脑的承诺的直接“电话呼叫”跟踪 捐款，并在地方和国家合作和教育项目中保持领导作用 重点关注疾病、症状和对患者支持和照顾者教育的需求的异质性以及 资源。
