OVERALL ABSTRACT The Community Health and Aging in Native Groups of Elders (CHANGE) Resource Center for Minority Aging Research (RCMAR) is a new iteration of the Native Elder Research Center (NERC) that has been continually funded since its inception in 1998. CHANGE will relocate the RCMAR to Washington State University’s Institute for Research and Education to Advance Community Health and continue to increase the diversity of investigators conducting research with Native populations in the US, defined here as American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander people. We maintain an 18-month cycle, draw on long- established best practices, offer innovative solutions to improvements identified by former NERC Faculty and Scientists, integrate a community-based approach, and expand our diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility platform to create a culture of inclusiveness and support for 9 diverse early-career faculty (3 per cycle). CHANGE is led by MPIs Dedra Buchwald, MD, at Washington State University, and Julie Baldwin, PhD (Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma), at Northern Arizona University; they will co-lead the Leadership and Administrative Core. The Research Education Component will be led by Clemma Muller, PhD, MS, at Washington State University; and the Analysis Core will be led by Richard MacLehose, PhD, at University of Minnesota. Gary Ferguson, ND (Unangax̂/Aleut), at Washington State University, will lead Community Integration activities to embed community engagement and education into the Pilot Studies and all aspects of CHANGE, upholding our commitment to principles of participatory research. We feature subcontract affiliations with Mentors Valarie Jernigan, PhD (Choctaw), a former NERC Faculty and Scientist, at Oklahoma State University; Scott Okamoto, PhD, a current RCMAR Mentor, at University of Hawai’i at Mānoa; and Mandy Fretts, PhD (Eel Ground First Nation), at University of Washington. Our Specific Aims are to: 1) Deliver the 18-month CHANGE curriculum to a diverse cohort of 9 Scientists pursuing careers in aging research with Native people; 2) Provide state-of-the-art support for CHANGE Scientists’ Pilot Studies within a holistic framework of mentoring, professional development, and research excellence; 3) Integrate CHANGE Scientists into a network of investigators, RCMAR alumni, and community partners who conduct Native health research and promote Native health interventions; and 4) Embed principles of community outreach, engagement, and participatory research, as well as diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility across all CHANGE activities. The literature on training programs for underrepresented minority investigators highlights the success of personalized, culturally-informed training and access to underrepresented minority role models. CHANGE is highly responsive to RFA-AG-23- 026’s requirements of recruiting Scientists and providing Mentors from the parent or affiliated institutions, while concurrently accommodating the real-world limitations presented by the highly-dispersed and relatively-small community of early-stage investigators and senior faculty conducting aging-related research on Native health.

总体摘要 少数民族老龄化资源中心（CHANGE Resource Center for Minority Aging） 研究（RCMAR）是土著老年人研究中心（NERC）的一个新的迭代，该中心一直在不断地 自1998年成立以来，变迁将把RCMAR迁移到华盛顿州立大学的研究所 促进社区健康的研究和教育，并继续增加 调查人员对美国的土著人口进行研究，这里定义为美洲印第安人， 阿拉斯加原住民、夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民。我们保持18个月的周期，从长期- 建立最佳实践，提供创新的解决方案，以改善前NERC教师和 科学家，整合基于社区的方法，扩大我们的多样性，公平，包容性和可访问性 平台，以创造包容性的文化和支持9个不同的早期职业教师（每周期3）。变化 由华盛顿州立大学的医学博士Dedra Buchwald和切罗基的博士Julie Baldwin领导 国家的俄克拉荷马州），在北方亚利桑那大学，他们将共同领导和行政核心。 研究教育部分将由华盛顿州立大学的Clemma Muller博士领导; 分析核心将由明尼苏达大学的Richard MacLehose博士领导。加里弗格森， ND（Unangax阿留申/阿留申），在华盛顿州立大学，将领导社区融合活动，以嵌入 社区参与和教育到试点研究和变化的各个方面，坚持我们的 坚持参与式研究原则。我们与导师Valarie的合作关系 杰尼根博士（乔托），前NERC教师和科学家，在俄克拉荷马州州立大学;斯科特 Okamoto博士，现任夏威夷大学Mānoa分校RCMAR导师; Mandy Fretts博士（Eel 地面第一民族），在华盛顿大学。我们的具体目标是：1）提供18个月的变化 课程，以9个科学家追求事业在老龄化研究与土著人民的多元化队列; 2）提供 在指导的整体框架内为变迁科学家的试点研究提供最先进的支持， 专业发展和卓越的研究; 3）将变革科学家纳入网络， 研究人员，RCMAR校友和社区合作伙伴谁进行土著健康研究和促进土著 健康干预措施;以及4）嵌入社区外展，参与和参与性研究的原则， 以及多样性、公平性、包容性和所有变革活动的可访问性。关于培训的文献 为代表性不足的少数民族调查人员提供的项目突出了个性化的、文化上知情的 培训和接触代表性不足的少数群体榜样。变更对RFA-AG-23- 026要求从母公司或附属机构招募科学家并提供导师， 同时适应现实世界的限制所提出的高度分散和相对较小 社区的早期阶段的调查人员和高级教师进行老化有关的研究土著健康。
