More than 2 million older Americans from underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups (URGs) have early‐stage Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). There are very few scalable recruitment strategies, particularly for Black older adults, to accelerate participation in ADRD research. The Indiana Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (IADRC) and its Community Advisory Board developed and implemented the innovative RAAISE‐D Framework. This Framework informed the creation of community‐first recruitment strategies designed to accelerate participation of Black older adults in ADRD research. Preliminary outcomes from its implementation included the doubling of Black adult enrollment (46, 13.4% to 101, 26.9%) from April 2020 to April 2024. Black adults were more likely to have normal cognition, be female, and ≤ 12 years of education than non‐Hispanic White adults. The RAAISE‐D Framework identified key concepts for URG focused recruitment strategies which successfully accelerated enrollment of Black adults in ADRD research and could be generalized to other URGs.Highlights RAAISE‐D Framework provides adaptable URG recruitment strategies. IADRC CAB‐researcher partnership was the foundation of community‐first methodology. RAAISE‐D Framework doubled the Black enrollment in the IADRC in 4 years.

制定和应用具有潜在可扩展性的招募策略，以加速黑人成年人的 ADRD 研究参与


超过 200 万来自代表性不足的少数种族和族裔群体 （URG） 的美国老年人患有早期阿尔茨海默病和相关痴呆症 （ADRD）。很少有可扩展的招募策略，特别是对于黑人老年人，以加速参与 ADRD 研究。印第安纳州阿尔茨海默病研究中心 （IADRC） 及其社区咨询委员会开发并实施了创新的 RAAISE-D 框架。该框架为社区优先招募策略的创建提供了信息，旨在加速黑人老年人参与 ADRD 研究。其实施的初步成果包括从 2020 年 4 月到 2024 年 4 月，黑人成人入学人数翻了一番（46 人，13.4% 到 101 人，26.9%）。与非西班牙裔白人成年人相比，黑人成年人更有可能具有正常的认知能力、女性身份和≤ 12 年的教育。RAAISE-D 框架确定了以 URG 为重点的招募策略的关键概念，这些策略成功地加速了黑人成年人参与 ADRD 研究，并且可以推广到其他 URG。IADRC CAB 研究人员伙伴关系是社区优先方法的基础。RAAISE-D 框架在 4 年内使 IADRC 的黑人入学人数翻了一番。
