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 原生老年群体的社区健康与老龄化(CHANGE)少数民族老龄资源中心 研究(RCMAR)是土著老年人研究中心(NERC)的新迭代，它一直在不断 自1998年成立以来一直得到资金支持。Change将把RCMAR重新部署到华盛顿州立大学的研究所 用于研究和教育，以促进社区健康，并继续增加多样性 研究人员对在美国被定义为美洲印第安人的原住民进行研究， 阿拉斯加原住民、夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民。我们维持一个18个月的周期，利用长期的- 已建立的最佳实践，为前NERC学院和 科学家，整合以社区为基础的方法，扩大我们的多样性、公平性、包容性和可及性 为9名不同的早期职业教师创造包容和支持的文化平台(每个周期3名)。变化 由华盛顿州立大学医学博士Dedra Buchwald和博士Julie Baldwin(切诺基人)领导 他们将共同领导领导力和行政核心。 研究教育部分将由华盛顿州立大学博士、硕士克莱玛·穆勒领导； 分析核心将由明尼苏达大学的理查德·麦理浩博士领导。加里·弗格森 华盛顿州立大学的ND(Unangax̂/Aleut)将领导社区融合活动以嵌入 社区参与和教育参与先导研究和各方面的变革，坚持我们的 对参与性研究原则的承诺。我们的特色是与导师Valarie签订分包合同 Jernigan，博士(Choctaw)，俄克拉荷马州立大学前NERC教员和科学家；Scott 冈本，现任夏威夷大学MāNoa的RCMAR导师；Mandy Fretts，博士(鳗鱼 地面第一民族)，在华盛顿大学。我们的具体目标是：1)实现18个月的变更 为9名科学家提供不同的课程，这些科学家与土著人民一起从事老龄化研究；2)提供 在指导的整体框架内为变化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 进行原住民健康研究和促进原住民健康的研究人员、RCMAR校友和社区合作伙伴 卫生干预措施；以及4)嵌入社区推广、参与和参与性研究的原则， 以及所有变革活动的多样性、公平性、包容性和可获得性。关于培训的文献 针对未被充分代表的少数族裔调查人员的计划突出了个性化、了解文化的成功 培训和接触未被充分代表的少数群体榜样。变化高度响应RFA-AG-23- S要求从母公司招聘科学家并提供导师，而 同时适应高度分散且相对较小的 社区的早期调查人员和高级教员进行与老龄化有关的土著健康研究。
