Session Notes Courtesy of Matthew Van


As people age, circles of support change and social capital plays an increasingly important role. This roundtable will explore the state of community surrounding older adults, their perceived value within their community, and how that impacts their disaster resilience. Topics such as social isolation, risk perception and understanding, caregiving, and other factors related to navigating disaster as an older person will be discussed.
