Community Liaison Core of the
Center for Aging in Diverse Communities |
The Community Liaison Core of the Center
for Aging in Diverse Communities (CADC) ensures the representation
and participation of African American and Latino community members
in aging research by bridging the resources of communities and research
institutions. The community Liaison Core creates linkages between
research institutions and community based organizations that aim
to decrease racial and ethnic disparities in the health of older
African Americans and Latinos.
Our Center is currently collaborating with several
community based organizations to develop and implement health education
and screening programs for African American and Latino elders. Programs
recently offered include a flu shot clinic and nutrition and weight
loss lecture at Allen Temple Baptist Church, prostate cancer education
and screening in collaboration with 100 Black Men of the Bay Area
Inc., a community health fair and lecture series in collaboration
with the Central American Resource Center, and a diabetes screening
and educational fair in the Latino community.
