Summary

On average, Americans outlive their decision to stop driving by ten years. With limited access to public transportation, what tech and community-based solutions are there to ensure that older adults have access to affordable and reliable transportation? We hear three different perspectives in this season premiere. Guests include Katherine Freund, President & CEO of ITNAmerica ( itnamerica.org ); Cheryl Stewart, a founding member of the all-women's Sirens Motorcycle Club ( sirensnyc.org ); and Alain Kornhauser, a professor at Princeton. Senior Planet from AARP is a community of older adults who are learning to thrive in the digital world. Senior Planet programs are offered free of charge online and in-person to help older adults build technology skills to allow them to improve their health, make new friendships, save money, and advocate in their communities.
