The National
Institutes of Health, National
Institute on Aging, The Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR), and The National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NCMHD) created a program to decrease the minority/non-minority
differential in health and its social sequelae for older people
by focusing research upon health promotion, disease prevention,
and disability prevention.
More information about the NIA's mission
to address health disparities can be found here.
There are currently six centers across the United States in
addition to the Coordinating Center. |
