Get involved!  For the first time, LeadingAge is partnering with the Geronotological Association of America, AHCA/NCAL and Argentum on Careers in Aging Week this year, March 3-9. 

The goal of the week is to allow our member organizations to make students aware of the rich variety of jobs in the field of aging services.  We are asking members to invite students to their organizations for different events — or, reach out to local schools and ask to talk to students about our field.  Last year, LeadingAge KS held a successful Careers in Aging Day, and we are delighted to use many of their resources, with permission.

During the week of March 3, please use our resources, social media tools and clips of interviews from team members from a wide variety of careers, e.g., culinary, communications, information technology, clinical care, etc.

You can find all resources here.  Please check back as we are continuing to add materials!

Feel free to reach out to Laura Hofmann, Dir. of Clinical & Nursing Facility Regulatory Services, LeadingAge WA, lhofmann@leadingagewa.org or  Susan Hildebrandt, VP of Workforce Initiatives, LeadingAge with any questions at shildebrandt@leadingage.org
