While experts warn of growing labor shortages in important fields, such as education, health care, and services for the poor and elderly, Baby Boomers in a new national survey say they want to take on jobs in these fields in their next career.

Today, the MetLife Foundation and Civic Ventures released The Boomer's Guide to Good Work, a free online pamphlet designed to help Boomers find public service jobs - whether full or part time - in the second half of life. The guide -- a project of Civic Ventures, funded by MetLife Foundation -- helps people think about new careers, new directions, and new ways of making the most of their years of experience.
