Abstract
This article presents the collaborative process for conducting research among a state home care foundation, its associated membership, and a university. Research collaboration allowed the merging of talents and resources from persons, home care agencies, and a university. The history and development of the project, sampling procedure, and data collection and analysis are discussed. The project increased the appreciation for research, allowed an opportunity for scholarly exchange, and accented the positive use of resources in all settings.
