Asian Resource Centers for Minority Aging Research (RCMAR)

The Center for Health Equity Transformation has partnered with the Rutgers Institute for Health, Health Care Policy and Aging Research to build a center designed to foster the next generation of diverse researchers in a nurturing environment that is conducive to success and promotes highly relevant and rigorous trauma, resilience and health outcomes research among Asian American older adults. The goals of the RCMAR are to: (1) Understand the cross-ethnic variations in the social, cultural, and behavioral mechanisms of trauma, stress, and resilience across U.S. Asian populations; (2) Explore the differential health outcomes associated with trauma, immigration, and mechanisms of resilience in U.S. Asian populations; and (3) Support early-career researchers through funding, education, and training, and build community capacity to address health disparities and improve health outcomes.
