- Abstract:
- On June 21, 2022, the Center for Healthy Aging at The New York Academy of Medicine convened 150 stakeholders from across New York State and around the country to learn about the upcoming New York Master Plan for Aging (MPA) process and provide critical input on what will be included in the plan. This summit was generously supported, both financially and programmatically, by The John A. Hartford Foundation (JAHF). During the first half of this virtual event, eight esteemed experts in the field of aging across the medical, philanthropy, academic, advocacy and government sectors provided information and insight on the MPA, the current state of aging services in New York, and the potential that the MPA offers in the next decade. In the second half, participants attended two out of eight facilitated breakout group sessions, which were categorized by topics that will likely be included in the MPA. During these sessions, participants shared concrete ideas and guiding principles that will be used as a roadmap for developing the MPA. This report summarizes the content shared by the experts as well as the ideas generated in the breakout groups. The goal of this report is that it will be used as a guide for the members of the Master Plan for Aging Council during the MPA planning and implementation process, as well as any professional, agency or organization that impacts the 65+ population, as it reflects the thoughts and insights of interdisciplinary professionals who are committed to the health and well-being of New York’s older population. This report is being released at an ideal time, as Governor Kathy Hochul signed an Executive Order on November 4, 2022 establishing the New York State MPA.
