An estimated one-third of adults age 60+ live alone, and as solo agers they may lack a greater family support structure as they face inevitable challenges — from quality of life to end-of-life decision making. Claire Solomon Nisen, LMSW, is the manager of DOROT’s Lasting Impressions program in NYC, and Wendl Kornfeld created the Community as Family program at Temple Emanu-El in NYC — both immersed with solo agers and their interests. They speak with Exit Strategy host Stephanie Garry.
