About Us
CARING LAB is committed to fostering community-engaged and interdisciplinary collaborative research, education, and public service in the fields of health policy and aging.

At the CARING LAB, we are committed to Community Action Research in Gerontology, working with communities to advance equity in aging. 

This collaboration allows us to:

  • Facilitate an equitable partnership during all phases of research projects. 
  • Foster co-learning and capacity-building among all partners.
  • Balance knowledge and action for the mutual benefit of all partners.
  • Address locally relevant health situations that emerge and affect determinants of health for older adults and their caregivers.
  • Assess successes and obstacles in an iterative process to ensure continual learning and quality improvement.
