Pat Fagin Scott, an 85-year-old woman from Washington, DC, feels that her age has limited her job prospects after retiring from the DC Housing Authority in 2017. Despite a diverse career that included teaching, working at the United Nations, and roles in corporate settings and government, she struggles financially on her retirement income. She has been actively looking for work to supplement her income. Scott moved back to DC after living in New York due to family circumstances and has lived in her current home for 47 years, which is larger than she needs now.
I was born and raised in Washington, DC, and attended Howard University. My first job was teaching because I wanted to be an assistant principal.
In 2017, I retired from the DC Housing Authority after 16 years. I didn't feel that I needed to retire, but I felt pressure to.
