Older Women in Minnesota: Approaches to Social and Economic Security

July 19, 2016

 

 

By Debra Fitzpatrick, MA – Public Affairs, Director of the Center on Women, Gender and Public Policy at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs, University of Minnesota. This webinar explores the most pressing economic and social challenges facing Minnesota’s older women. Among them: Living alone, fewer retirement resources, greater reliance on social security and levels of poverty. Next, inter-generational policy solutions will be explored. How can we devise public supports and interventions that decrease barriers for women and their families across the life span and recognize the interdependence of younger and older, male and female, Minnesotans?
