MBRI cover

This report summarizes findings from a study of providers of long-term care services in seven states:  Alabama, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio and Tennessee. The purpose of this four-month study was to gather information on the extent to which long-term care organizations employ older workers, use older volunteers, and serve as host agencies for participants in the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP). SCSEP is authorized by Title V of the Older Americans Act and administered by the Department of Labor (DoL) through 18 national grantees including Senior Services America, Inc. (SSAI), which funded this study, and 56 state and territorial grantees.
