Brief Description

The purpose of this initiative is to develop measures of financial hardship associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD)  that are responsive to the dyadic and family-level financial management arrangements that are common as AD/ADRD progresses. In order to accurately measure financial hardship among people and families living with AD/ADRD, validated screeners are needed to capture unique hardships associated with AD/ADRD that are not measured in screeners developed for people with cancer or in screeners developed for healthy households. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) invites research to support the development of measures of financial hardship for persons living with AD/ADRD and their partners, families, or caregivers to facilitate research on  financial health –  a key social determinant of health –  and health- related quality of life among older adults with AD/ADRD.
