ANPPM was founded to inform policy makers
and the general public regarding the status and needs of elderly Hispanics
and other low-income elderly persons. An advocate for elderly Hispanics,
this organization provides direct social services, such as employment,
housing, health and education, SSI outreach and counsel-ing, marketing
ideas, and provides training and technical assistance to community groups
and professionals in the field of aging. Through its National Hispanic
Research Center, it conducts national gerontological studies on the Hispanic
community. ANPPM is funded through a variety of federal, state, foundation
and corporate fund-ing. Dues are $75 annually for organizations, $50 for
professionals, $25 for students and para-professionals, and $5 for senior
citizens. The organization produces and distributes bilingual information
on the Hispanic elderly through its national Hispanic Media Center, and
sponsors the Fleming Hispanic Scholarship Fund.
