In the United States, the older population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. Researchers from Ha Kupuna National Research Center for Native Hawaiian Elders (funded by the DHHS, Administration for Community Living [ACL]) will provide a summary and update of their 10-year research plan, together with techniques for gathering data from underserved elders refined through lessons learned from a community-university collaborative partnership. These techniques include, but are not limited to, listening sessions, focus groups, key informant interviews, and surveys. Examples from the authors’ experiences with indigenous elders will be discussed with program, policy, and research implications for other underserved groups including LGBT and people with disabilities. |
