Storytelling intervention
Participants will receive a digital storytelling intervention featuring narratives from older adults with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) and their caregivers who have successfully managed the condition.

The intervention will be delivered at baseline and biweekly thereafter for three months via CIAS, with didactic "Learn More" modules provided following the stories.
