SUMMARY:Webinar: Big Data and Small Communities: Opportunities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nNowadays a wide variety of data from the US Census Bureau is easily accessible for anybody to use and it is relatively easy to create impressive looking maps and flowcharts. But how reliable is this data and can we really use it to inform planning decisions? This program will highlight some of the issues with the data especially with regard to liability\, comparability and data aggregation. In addition\, the program will briefly discuss why these issues are even more relevant when you use third party software.

SUMMARY:Health Impact Assessment: Incorporating Health into Planning and Decision-Making
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nHealth Impact Assessment (HIA) can be used to evaluate a proposed plan or project’s potential effects on the health of a population.

SUMMARY:Webinar: APA’s New Aging-in-Community Programs
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nWhile aging in place enables older adults to live at home independently\, Aging in Community promotes social capital—a sense of social connectedness and interdependence – with systems of support and caring to maximize one’s ability to remain at home in their community. Aging demographics challenge the shape of our policies\, planning and physical environments. A 2010 Metlife survey of 1400 local governments revealed that limited progress has been made in undertaking a comprehensive assessment to create a livable community for all ages. Planners play a key role in the provision of structures and services that support or hinder resident well-being\, productivity\, and prosperity. APA has developed a toolkit to help planners and public officials to address the unprecedented challenges of aging communities: a web portal of resources on ‘Aging and Livable Communities’; A policy guide on Aging in Community; a multigenerational planning framework for decision-making; and a new Planning Advisory Service report\, Planning Age-Supportive Communities\, with practical guidance to help communities develop aging-supportive programs. Leading players share the back stories behind the documents.
