Wacker, University of Northern Colorado • Karen A. Roberto, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University How have programs for older adults evolved? Who uses these resources? How are they delivered? And what challenges do ser vice providers face in meeting the needs of the aging baby-boom generation? This text answers these and other critical questions and provides a theoretical framework for understanding the forces that shape older adults' likelihood to seek assistance. To give students the foundational knowledge they need to meet the needs of their older clients, the authors provide in-depth reviews of the current body of empirical literature in each program area and discuss the challenges programs and services will face in the future. KEY FEATURES • Coverage of newly enacted or revised policies includes the Affordable Care Act, Elderhostel (now Road Scholar), Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) transportation legislation, Administration on Aging restructure, the Senior Citizens Freedom to Work Act and Jobs Act, and more. • Updated data, tables, and figures depict the changing demographic of aging and includes an expanded discussion of changes in the growth of older population by regions. • Increased emphasis on diversity and cultural competence issues throughout the book reflects the increasing importance of diversity as a critical part of delivering effective care. • New best-practice examples of community programs across the nation and the globe, as well as international programmatic resources, illustrate unique ways to meet the needs of older adults. • New and expanded coverage includes services for LGBT elders, rural elders, immigrants, and other special populations, as well as multigenerational perspectives, civic engagement, senior centers, and livable communities. • Additional models for care have been added, including the Geriatric Resources for Assessment and Care of Elders (GRACE) model of primary care and the Guided Care model of health care.
