Read the latest in the Investigative Reporting Program's coverage of Aging in America from @KateRaphael_ ('24)! This reporting was supported by a grant from the @TheSCANFndtn.
Kate Raphael's ('24) investigation into the confusion that often surrounds D.N.R.s, part of @UCBerkeleyIRP's "Aging in America" series, is a "Great Read" on today's @nytimes home page. Just terrific, public interest reporting. Bravo.

The latest in the IRP's coverage of aging in America, @KateRaphael_ reports on how environmental pollution from oil and gas wells impacts the older adults who live near fracking operations.
Of the nearly 18M Americans living near oil and gas wells, close to 3 million are 65 and older. For older adults, living in polluted areas has the potential for devastating, even life-ending, health problems.
