Successful Aging Across the Lifespan
2. ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Getting older is not an event –
there is no “magic age” at which
we become old. Rather, aging is a
process that occurs across the life
span and affects every aspect of our
lives. As the “graying of America”
continues, it becomes more and
more important to plan for later life,
not only for our older relatives but
for ourselves as well.
This one-day conference will explore
key issues facing older adults and
their families as they plan for a long
and healthy life. Geared toward
a wide audience, the conference
should appeal to practitioners,
service providers in all fields,
academics interested in aging and
older adults, and to any individuals
who want to learn more about how to
plan for the “good life” as they and
their family members grow older.
An outstanding group of experts will
address a range of topics, including:
• Strategies for staying healthy
and keeping fit
• Planning for the future and
navigating difficult healthcare
and financial decisions
• Making decisions about older
adults’ ability to continue
managing financial matters
• Environmental modifications
and tips for aging in place no
matter where one lives
• Coping with Alzheimer’s disease
from both the patient’s and the
caregiver’s perspective
