Age-friendly communities have had a significant impact upon the lives—and older age—of elders in America. The New York Academy of Medicine (NYAM), in support of GIA's Community AGEnda program (sponsored by The Pfizer Foundation), offers this informative session that shares innovative strategies to promote aging in community and presents the supporting evidence that such strategies are effective and replicable.
Presenters:
Jeanne Anthony, AARP Livable Communities
