In a journal assignment, address the following:
- Briefly discuss the aging issue covered in the article or resource. How is this a critical issue?

- Consider this aging-related topic in light of your current and future professional work and/or career goals. How does this topic, and the future needs of the aging network, intersect with your personal or professional trajectory?
