The American Society on Aging’s (ASA) annual Aging in America conference will be held March 28 through April 1 in Washington, D.C. The Ninth Annual What’s Next Boomer Summit, produced by Mary Furlong & Associates (MFA), is the premier gathering on March 28 of public and private organizations, business leaders, media and other thought leaders focused on the issues facing the nation’s 78 million Baby Boomers as they age.
Snelling will moderate an analyst session at the Boomer Summit, Health, Housing and Caregiving Economic Trends, with panelists Steve French, managing partner of Natural Marketing Institute (NMI), Sharon Dworkin Bell, senior vice president of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and Gail Hunt, CEO and president of the National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC).

The second panel, Staying Connected in a Digital World: Prescription for a Long and Happy Life, focuses on technology’s role in helping older Americans avoid isolation and stay connected giving their caregivers peace of mind and opportunities to find volunteer help. Co-panelists include: Neal Cutler, Ph.D., executive director for the Center on Aging of the Motion Picture & TV Fund (MPTF), Jean Coppola, Ph.D., associate professor for the Seidenberg School at Pace University in New York and Brooks Kenny, chief marketing officer for Lotsa Helping Hands.

More than 1,000 prominent political and entertainment industry leaders and celebrities will gather on March 21 to recognize the advances in the fight against Alzheimer’s – a disease that impacts more than five million Americans and millions more of their family caregivers.
Celebrities scheduled to attend include: cast of TV’s The Big Bang Theory, film and TV stars Alfre Woodard (Memphis Beat, Grey’s Anatomy,True Blood), Kristen Bell (House of Lie$), Taye Diggs (Private Practice), Sean Hayes (Emmy-winning Will & Grace and Tony-nominated actor), Wayne Brady (Broadway, TV star), Beth Behrs (2 Broke Girls), David Hyde Pierce (Emmy-winning Frasier and Broadway star), Peter Gallagher (Covert Affairs), Josh Radnor (How I Met Your Mother) and more.
