It has been projected that the older population will grow from 40.3 million in 2010 to 72.1 million in 2030.  This population is unique because they grew up in a time (1960-1970s) where the stance on alcohol and drugs were different.  We are left with learning how to identify and manage this unique situation (Kuerbis, Sacco, Blazer & Moore, 2014).
