The Aging Prison Population and Healthcare

Health

Rodlescia Sneed, PhD, MPH, Assistant Professor in the Wayne State University Institute on Aging discusses the aging prison population both locally in Detroit and nationwide. She addresses the issues this often overlooked population faces, why there is such an increase in the aging population, criminal justice laws, chronic disease, and what is being done to improve the situation.

Her Research Project Title is: The Social and Psychological Determinants of Health and Aging Research Group (The SHARE Group) -
