Learn how to support independence for older adults and people with disabilities at the 2025 Summit on Aging, Independence & Transportation!
About this Event

The Summit on Aging, Independence, and Transportation offers a valuable platform to share, identify, and explore "Best & Next Practices" for addressing the current and future needs of older adults and people with disabilities. Leaders in public policy, research, and services will present models, concepts, and initiatives that support and sustain aging and independence.

This day-long event will include breakfast and lunch, as well as concurrent workshops throughout the day. Expected attendees include human service and healthcare providers, public policy and disability rights advocates, traditional and non-traditional long-term care providers, programs and services supporting aging in place, educators, students, caregivers, and seniors.

The luncheon keynote speaker is Melissa Gray, Assistant Director of Transportation at USAging and the National Aging and Disability Transportation Center, who will present "The Road to Independence: Rethinking Transportation for Aging with Dignity and Choice."

Registration is now open, and we hope you will join us.

There are still opportunities to sponsor, exhibit, and place an ad in the program. We hope you will consider investing in this important discussion on aging and independence.

For more information please contact Christine Hulton (716) 836-0822 ext. 175.
