The first webinar in this two-part series provides an overview of the AAPI older adult population for Area Agency on Aging, or AAA, staff and providers, including demographic trends, cultural diversity and barriers to accessing services. The second webinar in this series provides a more in-depth look at the strong cultural values and diversity across AAPI families. Complex issues, such as family caregiving and dementia are discussed.

The National Resource Center on AAPI Aging offers strategies for AAA staff and providers to integrate cultural and linguistic competence into their work with AAPI older adults and family caregivers, thereby strengthening access to the Aging Network’s long-term service and support system for AAPI families nationwide.
