Workforce
The LeadingAge LTSS (Long-Term Services and Supports) Center is committed to disseminating information about workforce-related challenges, and collaborating with employers and policy makers to identify, demonstrate, and assess workforce development and improvement practices.
The Workforce Crisis
We heard you. LeadingAge knows the workforce crisis in aging services is real and requires action on many fronts. There is no single solution to unprecedented workforce challenges, but we work alongside our members to develop and advocate for a wide range of solutions to ensure America’s older adults and families can get the care and services they need.
WORKFORCE FACTS
Workforce Policy Updates
Too many older adults and their families face challenges in accessing essential care and services to remain independent, safe, and healthy because of a lack of qualified workers. LeadingAge urges and works for immediate government action – keep up-to-date on our federal advocacy with our weekly updates.
Student Program Portal
The LeadingAge Student Program includes opportunities for students to learn about rewarding careers in aging services. Right now we’re accepting applications for the 2023 Summer Enrichment Program, a 10-week immersive internship hosted by a LeadingAge member organization. Click to learn more!
