Visions for Aging in Place—Challenges for the Future

Update from the Office of Policy Development & Research

Featuring Henry Cisneros, Chairman of CityView and former Secretary of HUD

As a reminder, the “Visions for Aging in Place — Challenges for the Future” event will be held January 9, 2014. If you previously registered for the event, we look forward to your attendance. If you have not yet registered and would like to attend, please visit our website to register or view the webcast information.

Increasing life expectancy, a declining birth rate, and the aging of the baby boom generation will dramatically increase the number and proportion of the U.S. population over the age of 62 in the coming decades. Aging of the population presents challenges and questions including where people will live and how they will obtain the support and care they will require as they grow older.

Attend this special update to hear about these challenges and the economics of aging in place, social service demands, technology and physical requirements, community planning, and government programs. Come hear how housing can be a platform for improved lifestyles for the aging population and enable health care cost savings.

Following Secretary Cisneros’ remarks a panel will examine the issues.

  • Jennifer Ho, Moderator, Senior Advisor on Housing and Services in the Office of the Secretary, HUD
  • Judith Willett, National Director of the Village to Village Network
  • Alisha Sanders, Senior Policy Researcher at the LeadingAge Center for Applied Research
  • James Toews, Senior Policy Analyst, Administration for Community Living, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
