Recently, Paul Soczynski, Senior Vice President of Healthcare for Volunteers of America National Services (VOANS), participated in WTOP News radio’s webinar Balancing the Housing Equation where he discussed the intersection of housing and healthcare and how these issues impact America’s underserved communities.
Paul specifically addressed the growing need for affordable housing for seniors, noting that nearly 20% of the U.S. population is currently comprised of seniors — a number that is expected to increase to one-fourth of the population within the next 15 years. He also highlighted the benefits of our Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) service model and shared plans for expanding the program in several markets, including a new PACE facility scheduled to open this spring in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
“I’m a firm believer that affordable housing opportunities should be in every neighborhood in our city, not just in ‘other people’s’ neighborhoods.”
Paul Soczynski, SVP of Healthcare
