There are so many folks who want to age in place but live far away from the care they need, and that can present challenges for their health, happiness and the social fabric of their communities. Dr. Jordan Lewis is the director for the Center on Aging at the University of Hawaii at Manoa with the Thompson School of Social Work and Public Health. He’s Alaska Native on his mother’s side and got his PhD in Community Psychology from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Over the course of his career, Jordan has been drawn to the study of elder care— especially in rural and American Indian/Alaska Native communities. He wants to study the ways in which people can “age how they wish” and what we can all learn from the elders who are navigating that chapter of life.
