Is This Site For You?
This site is designed for those actively involved in policymaking, shaping public opinion, leading efforts on aging in their communities and otherwise engaged in older adult issues.
Our goal is to collect leading thinking, ideas and examples that have worked to encourage successful aging. Studies, opinion papers and articles on successful aging from around the world have been collected and made available here.
The initial list of contributors, or "Champions" as we call them, have agreed to share their thoughts, including commenting on pieces posted here. More Champions are being identified and invited to participate, making this the "go to" site for anyone who needs to stay on top of successful aging today.
