2025 Signature Series: Aging in America
July 23, 2025 | 9:00 a.m. Registration | 9:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Program
What will it take to meet the needs of an aging nation?
By 2050, the number of Americans aged 65 and older will increase by nearly 50%. Aging impacts every family, every community, and every part of our health care system. Yet, many policy questions about how to meet our needs as we age remain unanswered.
The Signature Series Summit on Aging in America is your front-row seat to critical conversations about aging policy.
This daylong, expert-led event brings together leading voices in health policy, research, caregiving, and aging services. Collectively, they’ll explore the big questions and hottest emerging issues that today’s policymakers need to understand to meet the needs of older Americans, now and in the future.
This event is organized by the Alliance for Health Policy, a trusted source for nonpartisan, evidence-based health policy education for more than 30 years.
What to expect:
- Expert discussions grounded in evidence and real-world experience
- Opportunities to connect with colleagues across sectors
- Leaps in learning on aging policy priorities, including: understanding the fundamental intertwined reality of health and financial realities and policies for older Americans, the complex relationships between autonomy and impacts, culture and experience, forward thinking and risk mitigation
Here’s what past attendees had to say:
“The event brought together people with different perspectives and viewpoints and that was appreciated.”
“I always walk away with newfound knowledge and excitement around the health policy topics the Alliance chooses to discuss.”
“It was such an interesting, unique and fun event.”
“A great day with meaningful connections and highly enjoyable.”
Reserve your spot for this timely discussion today!
This ticketed event is FREE and open to the public.
