Empowered Futures: Longevity and Disability
58:29
This session of the “Longevity Plus” Series explored the complex intersections of longevity and disability. One in four adults in the U.S. identify as having a disability, and as we age we are more likely to experience disability at different points in our lives. On December 7, 2023, AARP and the Social Innovation Summit hosted “Empowered Futures: Longevity and Disability,” where we learned from a dynamic group of leaders and self-advocates about how we can leverage innovation to build better tools, systems and practices to ensure that disability is not a barrier to longer, healthier life.
