White House Conference on Aging

The 2005 National Gerontological Social Work Conference was designated an Official White House Conference on Aging Event. To commemorate this honor, roundtables (co-sponsored by AGE-SW), were held in New York City. This venue allowed social workers to come together to draft resolutions to be sent to the White House Conference on Aging policy committee.
