SUMMARY

The goal of this intervention trial is to evaluate the effectiveness the online training program Dementia Education and Resources for Action (DERA) in improving Alzheimer's disease and related dementia-(ADRD) knowledge, stigma, and service-related self-efficacy among community health workers (CHWs).
