Episode 3- The Workforce Reimagined: NYC’s commitment to older adult talent

Commissioner Lorraine Cortés-Vázquez sits down with DCAS Commissioner Louis Molina to explore how the Adams administration is building an age-inclusive workforce across New York City. Drawing from his path through law enforcement—from patrol officer to detective, and leadership as president of the National Latino Officers Association—Molina brings a lived understanding of service, systems, and reform. Now leading the City’s employment infrastructure, he shares how DCAS is unlocking civil service pathways for older adults, removing barriers, and empowering seasoned talent in every borough.
