Aging, the California Foundation on Aging, and the California Commission on Aging. This collection appears to have been, at
least in part, the provenance of Betty Kozasa, a well-known leader and founder of many organizations all related to the welfare
of children, minorities, and the elderly. She spent almost 50 years of her life in this passion. She worked for and assisted
the City of Los Angeles, the State of California, the US Government, and lastly, the United Nations.
