This webinar is based on a California State University Transportation Consortium research project, funded by California's Senate Bill 1, Road Repair and Accountability Act.
As the U.S. population ages, how is transportation adapting to serve more older adults? Projections indicate that the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community will make up 11 percent of people 65 years and older in the United States by 2050. AAPI elders face unique mobility challenges, including language barriers, cultural barriers, anti-Asian hate, accessibility to public transit, traffic safety and public security concerns. Experts discuss how to best serve the aging AAPI population to ensure everyone can access opportunities and engage with their communities.
