Abstract: The elderly population is growing at a faster rate than the overall U.S. population. In addition, the elderly immigrant population is also growing at a fast rate in the U.S. Both population groups face various challenges concerning their needs and in receiving assistance from healthcare and human services. As scant literature concerning meeting the needs of elderly immigrants exists, this paper examines Human Services’ ability to provide adequate assistance and the efforts of multi-sectoral planning, while attempting to meet the needs of elderly immigrants in the U.S.
