Serving Everyone: Building Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion into Aging Services (August 25, 2020)
Additional Materials:
From volunteer community groups, to formal aging services and healthcare providers, we all want to make sure everyone who needs help can get it. However, sometimes the systems we build unintentionally exclude the very people we want to help. Join us for the start of a conversation about strategies we can use to make sure our aging services systems are inclusive and equitable.
