Research & Community Partners

Research and community partners work with the CCAA in reciprocal ways to carry out knowledge mobilization, translation and exchange activities. Collaboration with partners is essential to making substantial impacts on the activity, health and well-being of older adults. Of particular importance are collaborations with research and community partners who provide sound information on healthy aging, and who provide evidence-informed, high-quality front-line care for older adults across the spectrum of functional mobility.
