Aging and disability : crossing network lines

"This book will be a rich resource to those trying to constructively link disability and aging political agendas. It brings together a good mix of authors familiar with independent living, developmental disabilities, or aging. Several chapters report on collaborations between aging and disability networks and provide next steps for building on this experience. Also of interest are chapters specifically addressing how to engage consumer stakeholders and those that contrast the dominant approaches of aging and disability advocates to social change." - BOOK JACKET
