​New 2021:  Our 2021 -2024 Strategic Plan Update.  Throughout the Fall of 2020 we engaged in surveys and focus groups with our partners to refresh our mission and goals.  Both the full strategic plan and an Executive Summary are available.  This 3-year plan update shares goals, strategies, and measures for 2021-2024 and achieves the following:
  • Sharpens and clarifies the Longevity Project’s mission and scope of work.
  • Establishes strategic goals inclusive of a total aging lifespan and equity focus
  • Emphasizes the need to re-think “single-story” narratives focused on aging as “decline”.
  • Updates understanding and messaging with current knowledge
  • Aligns stakeholder engagement with mission and scope
We are so grateful to Kimbrough Consulting and Wilkes Consulting for their diligence, flexibility and overall brilliance in their efforts to capture this enormous task.
