  • Summary

    Aging and Memory in the African American Community. Pregnant women exposed to high temperatures or air pollution are more likely to have children who are premature, underweight, or stillborn, and the effects hurt African American mothers and babies most. The population of those over 80 will increase 80% in the next ten years. Many older Americans who live with disabilities will not be able to pay for adequate housing, food, medicine and personal care. Many families of color are unable to pay for healthcare.
