The following are YALC sponsored sessions: Date:ÊFriday, August 5 Time:Ê8:30 AM - 10:10 AM THEMATIC Session 007:ÊReimaging the Care Economy Room: Watercourt B Sponsor:ÊYouth, Aging, and the Life Course Organizer, Presider & Discussant:ÊChris Wellin, Illinois State University Description:Ê In this thematic session, we seek papers that deal broadly with caregiving and the (often threadbare) care economy, in the midst of neo-liberal policies and the profound disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Care, and the need for care, are pervasive in U.S. society, across the life course. We also see the persistent bias toward institutional settings, at the expense of home and community-based options. We also see the corrosive effects of public assistance programs, which often set up a "two-class" system imposing both eligibility requirements and, too often, stigma for those seeking supportive services.

Adams, Edlinguist Solutions Colin Hastings, Concordia University Presider/Discussant:ÊColin Hastings, Concordia University Description:Ê One of the central aims of institutional ethnography is to trace the institutional complexes in which people participate. Doing so positions institutional ethnographers to expand peopleÕs knowledge of their everyday world. As Dorothy Smith writes, ÒLike the map of the underground mall, with its arrow pointing to a particular spot accompanied by the words YOU ARE HERE! Institutional ethnographies are designed to enable people to relate the locus of their experience to where they may want to goÓ (Smith 2005, p.51).Ê This panel places connects IEÕs interest in institutional complexes to the sociology of the life course to illuminate a range of institutional complexes in which people participate throughout their lives.

This session explores how this limited perspective shaped the discourse of how both were expected to develop over the life course and how it has changed. We discuss new insight into the lived experiences of single, childfree women of color and cultural shifts in the representation of queer literary characters. While attitudes around queerness have progressed, receiving gender-affirming medical care remains systemically elusive for some despite unprecedented availability, and disclosure of oneÕs sexual minority identity in unsafe social environments can have severe consequences for oneÕs well-being. Religion's role in the development and support of sexuality and gender identity is also considered.

Johnston, William Penn University Description:Ê The sites at which community cultural work occurs may be perceived as places of contention or as places of community building, and may change across people and time. Place is a full experience that is embodied and practiced as part of everyday social life. It structures human interaction, is part of our built environment, and may even become part of the human identity. Place can help boost or diminish the morale of its people. This session invites papers about research conducted on place that emerges from community culture work that is done in museums, celebrations, festivals, parades, sporting events, as well as in the honorary (mis)naming of place.
