Abstract
Persons living with cognitive impairment, including those living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD), have unique needs and often require someone to navigate the health care system on their behalf. The family networks and social interactions of the caregivers of persons living with ADRD have the potential to improve the well-being of all involved. This chapter will provide firsthand accounts of the research experiences of a social scientist, a nurse scientist, and a community partner. Research experiences about the partnerships of academics and community members, engaging with a community advisory board, and involving community partnership at different times during the research projects.
