The AgingIN™ Annual Conference
August 10 – 13, 2026 • Denver, Colorado
Peak Purpose: Redefining How We Live and Age
Building on the energy of CFI 2025, in 2026 the AgingIN annual conference will bring the community together in Denver for an inspiring, hands-on event focused on advancing person-directed living across all care environments. Join leaders, care teams, and changemakers for bold conversations, practical workshops, and real-world strategies designed to help you take action wherever you are on your journey. We’re headed to the Mile High City, where we’ll take person-directed living to new heights. Put us on your calendar now for August 10 – 13, 2026.
AgingIN helps aging services organizations create communities they would be proud to choose for themselves and their families, backed by independent research. Through consulting, technical assistance, and education, we empower providers to implement meaningful, measurable, and lasting change.
We are the only nonprofit organization that connects care partners and elders with academic research and real-world practice. We do this by bringing together providers, researchers, policy makers, regulators, and advocates from every corner of the aging services ecosystem.

We invite you to submit a proposal for a 60-minute concurrent session. Our goal is to inspire participants while equipping them with practical tools, resources, and best practices they can take back to their organizations.
Session proposals will be reviewed based on relevance, alignment with mission and values, innovation, engagement, inclusion of elder and care partner voices, and practical application.
