About the Program: |
California is facing a period of rapid growth in its senior population, and the need for at-home assistance or nursing home care will rise significantly. The policy implications of these changes will be wide-reaching—from increased demands on the health and human services budget to new pressures on workforce training, particularly in California’s community colleges.PPIC research fellow Laurel Beck will provide an overview of these changes and challenges, and a panel of experts will discuss the future of aging in the Golden State. |
