The theme of this year’s Older Americans Month, Age My Way, provides an opportunity to address two major challenges facing older adults across the country: lack of awareness of existing aging services and the crisis in access to care and support. During this online event, leaders in the aging services sector will come together with LeadingAge experts and members from across the country for an hour-long exploration of these two barriers, including:
- How they affect older adults seeking a range of care, services, and housing.
- How federal-level policy can deliver solutions.
Join this session to hear from experts in home and community-based care, the aging services workforce, affordable housing, and federal policy—and to be part of an online discussion of the way forward.
Speakers Include:
- Katie Smith Sloan, president & CEO, LeadingAge
- Roberto Muñiz, President & CEO, Parker, and LeadingAge Board Member
- Linda Couch, Vice President of Housing Policy, LeadingAge
- Mollie Gurian, Vice President of Home Based & HCBS Policy, LeadingAge
