Adults
Date: May 22, 2008
Time: 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM
Location: Hotel Pennsylvania, 7th Avenue at 33rd St., New York, NY
Our keynote is Dr. Robert N. Butler, President and CEO of the International
Longevity Center-USA. Based on his recently released book The Longevity
Revolution, he will examine in his presentation why and how we must
reexamine our personal and social approaches to aging so that the Boomers
and the generations that follow may have a financially secure, vigorous and
healthy final chapter of life.
In addition, Commissioner Michael Hogan (NYSOMH) and Director
Michael Burgess (NYSOFA) will discuss statewide initiatives and strategies
to meet the mental health needs of New York's geriatric population, and there
will be a series of terrific workshops from some of our members on innovative
models, clinical skills and more.
