HOMELESSNESS AND OLDER ADULTS: the dynamics of older adult homelessness

Описание: An increasing number of people experiencing homelessness are older adults. In many cases, these individuals or couples have never experienced homelessness before. And older people are especially vulnerable when they're unhoused. In this video, we'll learn more from researcher and physician Dr Margot Kushel of the Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative at the University of California at San Francisco.

Dr Kushel and her colleagues have produced important research about older adults and homelessness. To learn more about their work, visit https://homelessness.ucsf.edu/

The Center for Learning will be introducing a course on caring for older adults experiencing homelessness in early 2025. Keep an eye out for it at https://learning.endhomelessness.org.
