The AAHSA Name Change is Official -- LeadingAge -- In mid-August, the members of the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging (AAHSA) voted to change their name to LeadingAge, a bold and ambitious move that will "reinforce the kind of leadership and innovation that our members have been involved in for a long time," said CEO Larry Minnix. Research and input on the new name has been in process for the past 18 months, with the AAHSA Board of Directors approving the change before it was voted on by the membership. With the new name comes a new mission statement, "Expanding the world of possibilities for aging."
Click here to watch several YouTube videos about the new name, and while you're at the website, enjoy approximately 85 other videos written and produced by the AAHSA staff.
