Jobs for Older People: Case Study of a Legislative Triumph.

Howard, Edward F.

American Psychologist, v38 n3 p319-22 Mar 1983

The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) was authorized by Congress under Title V of the Older Americans Act to provide support for part time jobs for older, low income men and women. The program was threatened with defunding in 1981, but lobbying efforts were able to rescue it. (Author/AOS)
