Healthy Aging

Every September we recognize Healthy Aging Month as a time to focus national attention on the health and well-being of older adults. In observance of Healthy Aging Month this year, ODPHP and Trust for America’s Health are hosting a free virtual Healthy Aging Symposium this week on September 8 and 9. It’s not too late to register!

Health and Well-Being Matter is the monthly blog of the Director of the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion.

The 2021 Healthy Aging Symposium kicks off at 1 p.m. ET on September 8, 2021, and it’s not too late to register for this free virtual event. In addition to the keynotes and roundtable speakers, the symposium will include 5 panels focused on the domains of Healthy People’s social determinants of health framework.

During this free, 2-day virtual event, attendees will hear from researchers, local and state health officers, aging directors, and policymakers from across the nation who are making a positive impact in the lives of older adults and their families.
