RIA’s mission is to enhance the quality of life and care of older adults through partnerships in research, education and practice. RIA explores the aging process across various theme areas, such as: Brain Health Heart Health Nutrition Training and Education Technology for Independent Living RIA uses the research findings to create or improve programs, policies, education and training. The learnings are then shared, resulting in better care and enhanced quality of life for older adults in the Villages and beyond.
