The research symposium in PD&R’s newest issue of Cityscape: A Journal of Policy Development and Research: (Volume 12, Number 2) examines aging in place models that effectively link older residents of assisted housing to supportive services. The collected studies focus on the need for rigorous evaluation of models of aging in place on which to build, the expansion of a successful New York City-based model of housing and supportive services to Los Angeles, the lack of empirical research on what services older adults in subsidized housing need, the importance of baseline data collection for effective service targeting, and the aging in place community and informal networks of family caregivers.
