Julia Magas (she/her)

I am pursuing my MSW in geriatric social work. I hope to use my degree to shape an adaptive program for older adults with disabilities. I notice that a lot of adaptive programming is available for young people with disabilities; however, there seems to be a disparity of programs for older adults. I hope to be an advocate for older adults with disabilities and ensure that they have programming that supports and enriches their quality of life.
