Description
Study coordinated by the health centre with some support from academic partners, assessed the types of programming Elders would be interested in, and what they saw to be barriers to participation. Researchers offered participants several options to encourage survey participation including language and location of interview; a well-respected Elder was hired to conduct the interviews.
