The Center for Accessibility and Safety for an Aging Population (ASAP Center) - The Center for Accessibility and Safety for an Aging Population (ASAP Center) is a multidisciplinary collaboration organized to conduct research in the primary area of transportation engineering, as well as performing educational and outreach programs. With motivation from Florida's large number of senior residents, the reported relatively high involvement of seniors in traffic crashes nationwide, and their special needs for transportation, the theme of the center is to provide safe and accessible transportation to the aging population.

The council works directly with the Dean of the FSU College of Social Work, the Center’s Executive Director, and the College of Social Work’s Director of Development.

The Institute for Successful Longevity - The Institute for Successful Longevity conducts research into how to live longer, stay active and be fully engaged in life. The institute takes a multidisciplinary approach to better explore the complexities of life as an older individual. Over the last century Americans witnessed tremendous gains in longevity, but successful longevity is more than living to a great, old age. It is about living well as we grow older. Living well means many things, so we draw on the talents of researchers in many fields across the Florida State University campus to look at health, cognition, recreation, mobility, financial security and other concerns.

The Executive Office is located at Florida State University.

 

 

The Pepper Institute on Aging and Public Policy - We are witnessing an unprecedented trend in human history – the rapid aging of the world’s population. The statistics are familiar. For example, the average life expectancy of the global population more than doubled between 1900 to 2015 – from about 30 years to over 70. Although population aging is an increasingly familiar concept, its wide- ranging effects are less fully understood and appreciated. Aging impacts every element of our society – the family, healthcare, education, politics, transportation, economy, media, military, and many others. Understanding these impacts and how public policies can address them is the focus of our work here at the Pepper Institute on Aging and Public Policy.
