View Award Description

CAlz Connect 2.0 - The California Department of Aging (CDA) proposes to implement the “CAlz Connect 2.0” pilot project to support persons living with dementia (PLWD) and their caregivers. Goal: Improve quality of life for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders (ADRD) and their caregivers and reduce caregiver burden. Objectives: 1) Create, expand, and sustain a dementia-capable home and community-based services (HCBS) system that includes Single Entry Point/No Wrong Door (SEP/NWD) access for people living with dementia and their caregivers; 2) Ensure access to a comprehensive, sustainable set of high-quality, dementia-capable HCBS, including innovative services for people living with dementia and their caregivers. Approach: CAlz Connect 2.0 continues to expand and advance California’s NWD system by leveraging the evidence-based Care Ecosystem (CE) dementia care model, training Community Health Workers (CHWs) to provide dementia information and education; work with families to develop a plan of care; connect families with community services/supports; and aid in care transitions. Anticipated Outcomes: 1) Improved quality of life for PLWD and decreased caregiver burden; 2) Increased utilization of HCBS for PLWD and/or their caregivers; and 3) Development of dementia capable services to advance California's NWD system. Products: Locally tailored outreach materials; pilot CHW model for statewide replication; and build a business case for funding sustainability to support PLWD and their caregivers. This grant proposal takes lessons learned from CDA’s initial Alzheimer’s Disease Program Initiative (ADPI), CAlz Connect (referenced herein as CAlz Connect 1.0), and expands the model with a focus on CHW sustainability, training and partnerships, and increased awareness and access of resources across health care and HCBS.
