A Qualitative Analysis of an Age Friendly Community Initiative

Reference
This article examines an age-friendly community initiative in Tallahassee, Florida where, although the planning process allowed information to be gathered efficiently, inclusion of a wider public was prevented by the narrow approach, lack of resources, centralized decision-making, and strategic selection of stakeholders. The author concludes by noting that existing partnerships can be used to broaden citizen involvement and ensure inclusive foundations for age-friendly initiatives to become solidified in the political, economic, and built environment.
