When a society only focuses on the physical effects of aging, it casts a wide shadow over other important aspects of growing older.
Matthew Fullen is determined to shine a spotlight.
The assistant professor of counselor education in the Virginia Tech School of Education earned a $100,000 grant from the Mather Institute to develop a wellness coaching program for older adults.
Fullen serves as co-principal investigator in the project along with Philip Clarke, an associate professor at Wake Forest University.
The Mather Institute, a national leader in senior housing, takes an innovative approach to promoting holistic wellness. The researchers sought the grant to help older people prioritize specific areas of wellness most relevant to them as individuals.
