CAARN facilitates development of research studies in collaboration with community agencies. New interventions and programs can be tested through connections to community agencies. For example, many studies have been conducted in Wisconsin counties and tribes by working with Wisconsin’s Aging Network – the aging office or Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) in counties and tribes – which has direct access to older adults and can engage their participation in research projects.
