Each year SSC convenes people from the silos, systems, organizations and communities that touch older people in our county. Our Making the Difference conferences explore emerging issues, illuminate challenges that we need to tackle together, and spark collaborative solutions.
2025 conference
Making the Difference: Taking Stock of the Aging Policy Landscape
The 2024 election will send ripples through a public policy landscape that has been reshaped by a housing affordability crisis, systemic health and social inequities, and a growing number of economically insecure older adults. How will the changing policy landscape impact systems, programs and funding that older adults rely on? What threats do we need to pay attention to? What opportunities might we seize to address the needs of our diverse community?
Meet our Keynote Speaker: Kevin Prindiville, Executive Director, Justice in Aging
Kevin Prindiville is the Executive Director of Justice in Aging, a national nonprofit advocacy organization that uses the power of law to fight poverty and advance equity for all of us as we age. Justice in Aging is a national org, but one that also does significant work in California.
Making the Difference will convene community-based organizations, health and social service providers, policy makers, and community members to examine emerging issues and explore solutions that will improve health and life outcomes for older people in Alameda County.
