Ma4 13th Annual Summit
on Aging and Health

September 12-14.  Here we are at the 13th Annual Summit on Aging and Health in Branson, Missouri, where the focus is on opportunities and challenges that face Missouri’s senior population.   Different sessions focused on such topics as partnerships and collaboration, Aging Forward, Best Practices, Communication and Social Media.   

The keynote speakers included Enid Borden, President of the National Foundation to End Senior Hunger, who told us of the severity of hunger in America and invited us to have the courage to lead and create change.   Amy Gotwals, Chief of National Association of Area Agencies on Aging Public Policy and External Affairs, presented “Policy Forecast” focusing on the possible impact of the upcoming elections on aging policy.  Novella Perin, PhD, consultant and trainer, focused on “Surviving Change: The myths and realities of change.” 


We would like to extend a thank you to the Ma4 Summit Planning Committee and staff for all their hard work in bringing us informative and educational information.
