Description
Project AsPIRE (Asian American Partnership in Research and Endowment) was a community-based participatory research program designed to develop, test, and evaluate a community health worker model designed to reduce cardiovascular disease and hypertension disparities among Filipino Americans living in New York and New Jersey. The project consisted of a pilot intervention and a 4-month full intervention. There are data available from the intervention, collected at baseline and at 4-months. Survey data is also available from the 8-month mark, although this data was collected for the full intervention only. The pilot intervention included 33 individuals with complete data (a total of 88 were recruited), and the full intervention included a total of 240 individuals with complete data (a total of 305 individuals were randomized into the intervention). Screening surveys with a limited amount of data were also collected between 2008 and 2012 in New York City and Jersey City, NJ and included a total of 1,312 Filipino individuals.
