SELF Program in Bucks County
Abstract
“I’m fine. Just get those men out of my trees.” These were the words of an older woman in Langhorne, Bucks County, whose neighbors had called the Area Agency on Aging concerned over her closed blinds and her withdrawal and isolation from the neighborhood. Her words are characteristic of many older adults who have unmet mental health needs that are impairing their functioning -- needs which this age cohort will often deny, decline treatment for, or not even recognize.
