The Westchester Alliance of Academic Institutions for Aging Related Studies and Workforce Development views it as critical that colleges and universities continue to increase their courses on aging issues and ensure students recognize the opportunities that the increase in the number of older Americans offers.
The Westchester Alliance’s 25 members are businesses, not-for-profit organizations, colleges and universities. These collaborations bring more awareness of older adults and galvanize the need to develop national social policies on aging issues. The Alliance also promotes college students interest in careers in aging services. For more information contact Colette Phipps (914) 813-6441 or cap2@westchestergov.com.
