Lower levels of government assistance, competition for available funds by proprietary organizations, and a burgeoning aged population are present societal conditions calling for board and management staff action. Strategic planning, political activity, and possibly corporate restructuring are alternatives to be considered. The benefits gained by such organizational moves come in the form of operational strengths, flexibility in the market, and efficiency in and acceptance of programs. In turn, agencies and institutions help assure their social ministry role in future years.","PeriodicalId":81690,"journal":{"name":"Journal of religion & aging","volume":"2 1","pages":"73-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J491V02N04_09","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66344301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fellowship was jointly funded by a W. K. Kellogg Fellowship granted by the Hospital Research and Educational Trust, Chicago, Illinois and by The Center. At its completion, the project proposed a concept of supportive elderly congregate housing designed for persons not only requiring assistance with such vital activities as eating, dressing, and grooming but also lacking adequate support from family and friends. Confronted by gaps in our health and social service systems, these elderly often struggle with whether to remain in independent living arrangements without adequate coping mechanisms or to enter long term care institutions which mav provide more services than are needed.

While Florida statutes make no provisions for public guardianship, Florida law does allow nonprofit corporations to be appointed guardian of person and/or property.

In this crisis an answer is demanded to the question, \"Was my life worthwhile?\" A positive or negative verdict must be reached. The \"Life Review\" is necessary for the resolution of this conflict. Such a life review is often precipitated by the awareness of death. A few cases are briefly cited to show how elderly patients in a Veterans Administration (V.A.) Hospital setting have coped with this crisis. Two theological ideas are brought to bear on this problem. One is a review of one's life in connection with James Fowler's idea of \"master story,\" of how effectively we connect with our cherished religious symbols, and the other is Donald Capps's \"parabolic event,\" or how we interpret events in the past as having the potential for new insights. A new look at repentance and confession is necessary as they are approximate psychological counterparts to these theological...","PeriodicalId":81690,"journal":{"name":"Journal of religion & aging","volume":"2 1","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1986-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J491V02N03_01","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66343041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Networks had to be made intentional through programming. A needs assessment of the senior population identified specific subgroups and their needs. Recognizing the diversity of the senior population, a broad spectrum of programs was established. An effort was made to maintain a balance between traditional and innovative. The senior program has strengthened the networking among seniors, increased their integration with the other age groups in the church, and provided an entry level for those new to the church. The program has also become known in the community, which has resulted in cooperation with other senior service organizations who provide education and training.

The hypothesis is that a person drops out of active church life because helshe feels alienated within the social system known as the church. Groups were tested in Michigan, Indiana, and Florida. Each group was tested for church attendance, religiosity, alienation and religious experience. Using alienation as the independent variable, it was determined that there was a correlation between alienation and church attendance. These two variables were found to be correlated at the 0.001 level of confidence. Upon further examination it was found that the computed T-Statistic indicated that the correlation was inverse in nature. As alienation increases, church attendance measurably decreases. Due to the fmdings of this research the hypothesis was accepted.
