The mission of the Claude D.
Pepper Older Americans Independence Center at Yale is to develop
and test multi-disciplinary interventions aimed at maintaining
and/or improving the functional ability of older persons.
Yale Pepper Center activities focus on geriatric health conditions
common among older persons that result from the accumulated
efforts of multiple diseases, impairments, and or prolonged
social, physical, and environmental factors. Building on the
foundation laid over the last 14 years, we focus on identifying
solutions to barriers impeding a more complete understanding
of the causes, prevention, treatment, and outcomes of multifactorial
geriatric health conditions.
