Listening to Californians with Complex Needs: Rural Californians
California’s population is rapidly aging, and the over-60 population is growing racially and ethnically diverse faster than any other age group. By 2030, it is projected that one in four Californians will be an older adult.
This growth — and the needs of an increasingly diverse aging population — demands that Californians take action to ensure older people get the support they need to live well. CHCF’s body of work on older adults involves CalAIM initiatives, home and community-based services, assisted living, and more.
