AnnotationThis article reports on a project to encourage the expansion of home-care worker training programmes at American Indian colleges, and to disseminate American Indian ageing information to a broad range of individuals and organisations involved in service provision and advocacy on behalf of American Indian older people. The project resulted in greater availability and better quality community-based in-home care for frail older people, and in the dissemination of knowledge about American Indian ageing issues to service providers, tribal leaders and educators.
