Older women who came to this country as adults have had little or no voice in public discourse, including feminist discussions of women’s experiences, needs, and roles. This qualitative exploratory study of how life events affected the aging of 25 women born in Puerto Rico, the West Indies, China, India, and Korea investigated the women’s early lives and current relationships with their husbands and other family members.Ways for the information gleaned to enhance social work with this population are also explored.
