An Ethnic Elder Demographic Guide to Los Angeles County, Volume TWO
With the positive feedback we received from our "An Ethnic Elder Demographic Guide to Los Angeles County" Volume 1, we are proud to present Volume 2, which takes a closer look at the Economic, Grandparents Caregiving, Health, Housing and Language characteristics of ethnic elders in Los Angeles City and County. A section on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Older Adults is also included. Service Planning Area (SPA) Maps and Transportation Guide can be found under Appendix A and B.
Given the limited availability of relevant data and information regarding this target population, it is our hope that the Guide gives readers a better understanding of the needs and challenges facing elders of color who live in the City and the County of Los Angeles. It will assist agencies with their program planning, funding allocation, service delivery and/or public policy formulation for older adults.
You can find and download the publication here (right-click & "save target as"), or look under "Publications & Resources" for future downloads.
