The American older adult population continues to become more and more heterogenous. What does it mean to be an older adult who is part of a diverse group? How do professionals remain culturally humble and competent while meeting the unique needs of the individual older person? Additionally, what role does implicit bias in aging play, particularly for those of diverse demographic subgroups, and how can this be addressed? Join us for this interactive program to discuss and uncover what various diverse groups have experienced over time, the impact it has on their aging experience, and how to maintain cultural competence and humility.
