Age-Friendly States: Improving Health and Well-Being for Older Adults (2021)

Our state populations are getting older. According to some rankings, the CSG Eastern region has 10 of the 12 oldest jurisdictions in the United States. Most people aged 50 and older wish to remain where they now live, and communities will need to become more “age friendly” to serve this growing population. This session will provide an opportunity to explore what several states, provinces, and territories have done to make housing, transportation, technology, and health care more age friendly. Moderator: Senator Gustavo Rivera, New York, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health; Chair, CSG East Health Committee Speakers: Terry Fulmer – President and CEO of the Hartford Foundation Mathew Varsava – Director of Policy, Ontario Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility Kimberly Causey-Gomez, MSW – Commissioner, Department of Human Services, U.S. Virgin Islands This session was recorded at the 2021 CSG East Annual Meeting
