Mission
 White House Conferences on Aging (WHCoA)
are decennial events designed to develop recommendations
for additional research and action in the field of aging.
Over the course of the 20th century, approximately 35 conferences
carrying the name of the White House have been held.
Yet only the White House Conference
on Aging has been held more than twice. With a tradition
of diversity in participants,
focus, and interests, each of the White House Conferences
on Aging has had an impact on aging policies in this
country.
The 2005 White House Conference on Aging
occurs as the first wave of the baby boom generation prepares
for retirement, creating an important opportunity to creatively
reassess aging in America and focus on the lives of older
Americans.
Please join us as we prepare for the
first White House Conference on Aging of the 21st Century!
