Navigating to 100 Symposium

America is getting older. Every 8 seconds another American turns 65. The Baby Boomer generation has begun reaching the age of retirement and their numbers have helped generate the so called “Silver Tsunami” we face today. The Baby Boomers parents are living longer and many find themselves planning for their own aging while caring for their parents. Aging involves many changes which may be frustrating, challenging and confusing!

We want to empower you with expert knowledge for the aging journey. This includes information in: financial, legal, healthcare, long term care, life transitions, and more. This symposium puts older adults, caregivers for aging family members and expert professionals that serve them together. You will be building a roadmap to navigate the aging process. Don’t wait until you or your aging family members are in crisis. Have the information you need provided to you by experts in the aging community. Have a clear path on the journey of aging well.

Our keynote speaker will be Helen Emmott author of the book, Without Regrets. Without Regrets is a roadmap for those about to venture into the world of caregiving for a parent and rich with advice on common issues such as advance care planning, decision-making and end of life choices.

We will have five breakout sessions where you will be directly learning and working with experts in building the roadmap to Navigating to 100. These sessions include :
