Our Purpose

Purpose of CARE: To improve research participation and address Alzheimer's disease, aging, caregiving, and other related health issues in Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities.

The theme of the CARE registry is “Health Across The Lifespan.”

How does CARE work?

Two parallel paths lead to matching. Participant path: complete a brief survey to enroll in CARE, then your information is stored in CARE's secure HIPAA-compliant database. Researcher path: submit a referral request application to CARE, then obtain approval from an Institutional Review Board. Both paths lead to CARE matching participants with researchers. You decide whether to participate and there is no cost to you.

Researchers get approval to use CARE data from their Institutional Review Board**

* CARE's database is HIPAA compliant, meaning it follows security measures to store protected health information. 
** An Institutional Review Board (IRB) is made up of qualified individuals who carefully review research involving human participants. They ensure that these studies are ethical, follow all laws, and protect participants' rights and safety.

CARE Testimonials 

"I really feel that my voice was able to be heard, all because of the CARE registry! I do not think I would have been able to have heard about or participate in [the] study if it weren't for CARE."
