Senior centers and minority elders: a critical review

PA Ralston
Division of Home Economics, University of Massachusetts, Amherst 01003.

This paper examines the literature on senior center participation and factors related to participation for minority elders. The extent of involvement of minority elders in senior centers is unclear due to lack of data for certain groups and methodological problems in some studies. Traditional and emerging factors that might affect minority elderly's senior center participation are identified and discussed. Suggestions are provided for expanding the knowledge base in this area.
