WINTER 2006-07 ISSUE
Civic Engagement in Later Life
Vol. XXX, No. 4
Nancy Morrow-Howell and Marc Freedman, guest editors
For philanthropists and scholars, policy makers, advocates, popular authors, and nonprofit entrepreneurs, civic engagement has become the mantra of the day in aging. With so much attention, and some confusion, surrounding the phenomenon, it's time to step back and ask, What does civic engagement mean? Why does it matter now? And what are the implications of a civically engaged older population -- for older people themselves, for those who work with them and their families, and for the larger community? The guest editors are two of the most respected voices on the topic: Nancy Morrow-Howell, Pumphrey Professor of Social Work, Washington University, St. Louis, and Marc Freedman, founder and CEO, Civic Ventures, San Francisco.
