GENERIC CLEARANCE UNDER OMB# _0925-0634_ EXP. DATE: 05/31/2014____
To ensure that NIA’s
OCPL successfully develops and disseminates health communications on
aging-related issues, NIA plans to conduct formative research with
senior center staff, an important gatekeeper to older audiences. In
this project, information will be collected through focus groups.
Senior center staff will be asked open-ended questions to determine
(1) approaches that NIA’s OCPL can use to more effectively
raise awareness of NIA’s free health and aging information
resources available to senior center staff; (2) if OCPL outreach
materials and activities identify NIA resources as accessible,
introductory, and trust-worthy sources of health information among
senior center administrators; and (3) if OCPL’s outlets for
its outreach activities correspond with where senior center
administrators look for their health and aging-related information
for their older adult members.
