A health research registry
The Collaborative Approach for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (AANHPI) Research and Education (CARE) aims to address the gap in research participation among AANHPI communities by connecting eligible adults with future research opportunities.

AANHPI are the fastest-growing racial population in the United States
18,000+
AANHPI adults enrolled in CARE since we first launched in 2020
Why is CARE important?
Closing the research gap
A recent study published in JAMA Network Open shows that clinical research projects focusing on AANHPI participants account for less than 1% of research supported by the National Institute of Health (NIH).
AANHPI communities want to participate
The sparse research suggests that AANHPI communities are interested in being engaged! But, various concerns — such as a lack of linguistic information and mistrust — need to be addressed to improve participation in research, including clinical trials.
More voices, bigger impact
Research is stronger when more people take part. By including more voices, we can improve the accuracy of findings and help develop treatments that work better for everyone.
Join CARE to share your voice
CARE gives AANHPI adults the opportunity to shape the health research that affects our communities! Your participation today helps future generations.
How does CARE work?
CARE connects researchers with participants who might be eligible for their studies. You'll only be contacted about studies you may be eligible for — and you always decide whether to participate.
