The purpose of this project was to conduct a limited search for support of adult basic education proposals among 35 private foundations. Questionnaires were sent, seeking information about foundations' attitudes toward adult basic education, target populations, and potential proposals. The results showed a wide range of attitudes, from indifference to cautious interest to enthusiasm. Suggestions for researching potential sources of support are presented along with the responses of the 35 foundations.

Exploring Children's Attitudes Toward The Elderly, Beverly Moore Smith

Graduate Research Papers

The number of persons in the United States over the age of 65 has grown faster than the population as a whole. Projections for the years 2000 and 2020 show 13% and 18% of the population over 65, respectively. This growth is attributed to a static birth rate and an upsurge in life expectancy. The fact that 25% of the American voters are elderly has captured attention in the political arena. Despite the growing recognition of the unique problems and needs of the aged, social policies fall short of meeting their requirements for a secure and dignified life.

A Study Of The Establishment And Operation Of An Adult Day Care Center In Southside Virginia, Ronald Vernon Dunn

Theses & Honors Papers

Adult Day Cares are a viable option for many Americans with elderly parents. Whether both partner work full-time and are unable to care for their parents, or their parents need the socialization that a group setting would provide, many view these centers as a practical option for them. An Adult Day Care is the mediator between the strict supervision that a hospital setting would provide and the lack of supervision while the adult is at their home. This study examines the history of Adult Day Care Centers, the Adult Day Care options in Southside Virginia, and develops a thorough plan …

Planning A Seminar On Aging To Disseminate Information To Personnel Working With The Aged, Oscar Raymond Gain Jr.
