Leah Abrams completed her PhD in health services organization & policy at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. As a Sloan Fellow, Leah explored how policies that push for later retirement (e.g. changing SS’s full retirement age) leave behind certain groups of older adults who lack agency in their retirement timing. She also examined how public and employer policies can extend working life for this population, rather than punish them for exiting the labor force early.
