How much does it cost an older resident in your state to live independently and cover their expenses? During this webinar, attendees learned about the Elder Index, a tool that measures cost of living for older adults in every state and county in the U.S. The COVID-19 pandemic will have long-lasting implications for the financial security of older people, and for information and service needs on the state and local level. This webinar discussed how the Elder Index can inform your planning and evaluation.
