Extreme Weather Information for Diverse Older Adults
Older adults in the United States face barriers to accessing information across multiple contexts, including during public emergencies. This study aimed to (1) identify where culturally and linguistically diverse older adults get information about extreme weather, (2) identify barriers therein, and (3) explore the role of trusted information sources. Eleven focus groups were conducted in nine languages with adults aged 62 and older in a Midwester…
Sexual Violence against Adults Aged 50 Years and Older and Implications for Prevention
At-risk older adults and older survivors of sexual violence (SV) remain largely absent from SV prevention and intervention, owing to ageism and sexism, as well as other intersectional forms of prejudice, including among service providers (e.g., social workers, healthcare professionals, practitioners in SV organizations, and practitioners who serve older adults). This study explored perceptions, knowledge and experiences with SV against adults 50 …
Does network homophily persist in multicultural volunteering programs? Results from an Exponential Random Graph Model
Few studies examined the social network structures within multicultural volunteer programs for low-income diverse older adults, making it unclear how diverse older adults establish social connections beyond their co-ethnic community. This study aims to identify the social network structures within a Senior Companion Program (SCP), a multicultural low-income volunteer program in a Midwestern Metropolitan area in the United States. Data were collec…
Analysing the travel behaviour of older adults
In recent years, various authorities launched projects that aim to make their cities more age-friendly. Designing age-friendly cities is a complex and context-dependent process that requires clear implementation guidelines for policy makers. As one of the eight domains of age-friendly cities, transportation is a critical component of making our cities more liveable for older adults and their families. This paper contributes to the literature by e…

Adult Day Services, Health Equity for Older Adults With Complex Needs, and the Covid-19 Pandemic
Morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 have unduly affected older adults from racial and ethnic minority groups. In this article, we highlight the experiences and vulnerabilities of diverse older adults with complex health and social needs when their access to vital, but overlooked, community-based adult day service centers (ADSCs) was abruptly cut off during a pandemic. Pandemic-related ADSC closures left vulnerable older adults and their care pa…
Age-friendly communities and perceived disconnectedness
Objective: To examine the effect of access to outdoor space and buildings and social or community events on elders' perceived disconnectedness. Method: Data were from a representative survey conducted as part of an age-friendly community initiative in a large midwestern city in the United States. Hierarchical logistic regression was employed to examine the relationships between environment, engagement, and connection. Results: Having access to ra…
Older Adults’ Perceived Benefits of Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy
The purpose of this study was to explore participants’ perceived benefits of equine-assisted psychotherapy and to understand if older adults with functional or cognitive impairment found meaning and purpose in their interactions with horses. This study employed a mixed methods study design with a concurrent triangulation approach. The findings from our study suggest that those impacted with functional or cognitive impairment can meaningfully enga…
Equine-Assisted Intervention for People with Dementia
The purpose of this exploratory study was to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of using guided interactions with horses as a nonpharmaceutical intervention to improve the physiological and behavioral states of persons with dementia. A convenience sample of persons with dementia was recruited from an adult day health center (n = 16). A multi-component intervention was implemented comprised of opportunities for grooming, painting, and lea…
