Senior Centers Summit: Reframing Aging

Senior Centers Summit: Reframing Aging

Monday December 11 2023, 12:00 PM - Monday December 11 2023, 3:00 PM
@ Virtual
Even as Americans live longer and healthier lives, how we think about aging has not changed. Ageism and implicit bias toward age continue to impact our society, including how senior centers are perceived. 
Join the ACL-funded Modernizing Senior Centers Resource Center and the National Center to Reframe Aging for a fun and interactive virtual summit where participants will look at how to communicate about senior centers. The summit will provide information, resources, examples, and activities that you can use to enhance the image of your center and be an agent of change in combatting ageism in your community.
After attending this webinar, participants will be able to: 
  • Demonstrate a strong understanding of the evidence-based communication strategies for reframing aging.
  • Understand how strategies from the National Center to Reframe Aging have successfully been applied in multiple sectors to advance age-inclusive policies. 
  • Apply tools from the National Center to Reframe Aging to current advocacy work to change attitudes toward aging.
The summit will include real-time captioning via Zoom. For questions, please contact Dianne.stone@ncoa.org.
