Tomorrow (4/26) – Health Affairs Webinar: Food Insecurity and Other Health-Related Social Needs Among Older Adults

April 25, 2022

Older adults have unique healthcare challenges and are impacted disproportionately by social determinates of health (SODH), like poor housing, transportation access, financial issues, and food insecurity. In a webinar taking place tomorrow, April 26th, speakers Brian W. Powers, Stephany M. Franklin, and Monica Peek will discuss new findings on how SODH affects older adults and four strategies that community-based healthcare programs have adopted to tackle this issue. The webinar is hosted by Health Affairs and the Society of Health Policy Young Professionals.

According to Health Affairs, “The Society of Health Policy Young Professionals, founded on 2006, is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit, non-partisan, volunteer-led organization designed to meet the diverse needs of DC-area young professionals interested in the health, health care, and health policy fields. The Society seeks to help young professionals forge meaningful and long-term professional relationships, offer a wealth of career-related information and tools, and provide regularly scheduled social and career-development events.”
