Aging Matters
Housing and Community
As women age, their connection to community, family, and friends is important, but housing is one of the challenges that threatens that connection. Housing options offering services and support needed by older adults may remove women from their communities. But this can lead to isolation – this is especially true for women of color and women from marginalized communities.
