Urban Institute researchers will share their latest findings on shifting U.S. demographics and how the nation’s changing population is raising issues related to health. The group will provide their most recent analysis of people living in the United States and related social characteristics, looking at age, geography and other data, and discuss future research on contraception access.
The trio of experts will also offer insights from recent data on those characteristics in residents ages 20 to 29, known as millennials, and how that group’s demographics is impacting the current and future U.S. population. Reporters will learn more about how to find the latest trends in U.S. demographics to spark larger discussions about demographics, millennial, race, marriage and population trends. Susan Heavey, AHCJ’s topic leader for social determinants of health care, will moderate the webcast.
