The longevity of the ID/DD population has created many challenges for the service network and families who care for this population. This workshop will elucidate many of these challenges and highlight some promising program designs and opportunities to better meet the unique needs of older adults with ID/DD. The workshop will describe the need for strategic partnerships with the general and robust Aging Service network in NYC and plans for creating an inclusive and age friendly New York, where all can achieve their best quality of life as they age.
