We can't wait to host hundreds of area nursing facility administrators, practitioners, caregivers, and others who work with seniors at our 33rd annual REACH Conference (Regional Education on Aging, Caregiving, and Healthcare) next month! The Area Agency on Aging (AAA) hosts the annual conference to provide educational workshops, plenary sessions, and networking opportunities. This year's conference will be held at Maude Cobb in Longview on October 2-3 and is ideal for professionals or caregivers serving older adults and persons with disabilities.


"We are thrilled to present our 33rd annual REACH Conference, 'Many Teams...One Dream.' This conference is for the professional and personal caregivers who are giving so much of themselves to care for our elders. We know caregiving is challenging but rewarding, and we want to provide them with the resources and support they need to thrive," said ETCOG's Aging Director, Colleen Halliburton.


The REACH Conference offers a wide range of topics related to aging, including:

  • The physical and emotional challenges of aging
  • How to take care of yourself while you are caring for an older adult
  • Legal and financial issues related to aging
  • Resources and support for professional and personal caregivers
  • Research on aging


It also offers Continuing Education Credits to assist participants in maintaining their licenses. The two-day conference costs $125. Visit our conference website, www.aaa-reachconference.org, to find out more and register!
