- Paul was accepted into the September, 2016 cohort within USC (University of Southern California) Master in Social Work Program (Macro) – Class of 2019.
- After two years of study, my focus addresses: integration of care for low-income adults (aged 65+), with Alzheimer’s (Dementia), living in Central Coast Counties (San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura) of California.
- This site will: establish awareness of current real-world topics, facts and evidence; understand the issues from multiple perspectives; and document my findings (with references).
- Additional purpose is to highlight services and programs (Government & Private) available within San Luis Obispo County, CA; State of California; and Federal Government. Note: Over time, additional counties may be added.
- Sources of input for this site:
- USC Coursework, professors, and all research databases
- My own experience and intuition
- Field Placement experience (Peoples’ Self-Help Housing)
- NASW Meetings (SLO County)
- Commission on Aging Meetings (SLO County)
