Description |
The theme of the 2008 Annual Scientific Meeting is "Resilience in an Aging Society: Risks and Opportunities." Resilience is an inclusive concept that spans generations, takes a life-course perspective, and embraces comparative international perspectives. In the broadest sense, resilience is about maintaining positive adaptation in the face of adversity. Resilience may be a dynamic process influencing the ability to deal with and learn from experiences or use social support to enhance coping. Society, communities, families, environment, and policy can play a critical role in promoting resilience. |

The Family Support Center of New Jersey is pleased to announce the 2008 National Caregivers Conference. Our conference will concentrate on the critical importance of caregivers. This year, we are coordinating a conference that will direct caregivers towards information on easily accessible, cost effective supports to all populations, regardless of age or disability. Knowledge of available resources can help to alleviate the stress associated with caregiving, sustain families and marriages, improve caregivers' health and well being, reduce the risk of abuse and neglect, and minimize or delay the need for more costly out-of-home placement. The conference will also serve as a networking session for parents to gain social supports and help them realize that they are not alone. |

Description |
The needs of today's seniors will be dramatically eclipsed by the demands of aging boomers, whose sheer numbers will shake the foundation of aging services and government entitlement programs.
Our nation's funding mechanisms, housing models, care paradigms, and public policies are ill equipped to address the challenges implied by the seismic shift in this demographic.
Join some of our nation's leading health care innovators, policy makers, and service providers to help drive the monumental sea change that must occur in aging services.

The National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast and Conference (NHPBC) is Esperanza's signature event. It is a testament of all the good things that take place when Hispanics come together with one goal in mind: to strengthen our community.
This three-day annual observance brings together hundreds of Hispanic spiritual and community leaders from across the country to meet with the nation's top elected officials and key policy makers in a collective effort to address the diverse needs of the Hispanic community. It is an exciting event on Capitol Hill where our voices ring loud and true both in prayer and in discussions with those who can effect change.

Description |
Aging Summit 2008 will explore our options for lifelong learning and how our community can encourage our growth and utilize our experience.
The biennial Aging Summits were initiated by County Supervisors Dianne Jacob and Pam Slater-Price as a way for the community to come together to talk about issues that are important to older adults, baby boomers and other family members. The events include speakers and break-out sessions where participants share their opinions and ideas.
Astronaut Buzz Aldrin will be the keynote speaker. Dr. Paul Nussbaum, Adjunct Associate Professor in Neurological Surgery at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, will cover the basics of the human brain and how to keep the brain healthly over the entire lifespan.
The conference will also feature exhibitors and lunch. A concurrent conference (with simulcast for the speakers) will be held at the California Center for the Arts in Escondido.
Expected attendance = 2,000. |

Description |
More than seven million Americans help older persons live in the community despite limitations on daily activities. Many adults also care for adult sons and daughters with disabilities. Family members and other informal caregivers truly are the backbone of our long-term care system. In Ohio alone, they contribute more than 1.1 million hours of unpaid help to others, care valued in excess of $10.4 billion. Nationally, family caregivers save taxpayers $257 billion.
Each year, the Ohio Department of Aging selects a handful of devoted caregivers and honor them for the work they do to make Ohio a better place, while symbolically recognizing the combined value of all informal caregivers throughout the state.
