The 2019 Conference

The State Society on Aging of New York (SSA) will be holding its 47th annual conference from Tuesday, October 29th through Wednesday, October 30th at The Gideon Putnam Hotel in Saratoga Springs, New York. We invite you to submit proposals for presentations, posters, and artwork on subjects in the field of aging, including but not limited to gerontology, geriatrics, public policy, service practice, and elder law. We welcome proposals from academics, researchers, service providers, administrators, policymakers, clinicians, private practitioners, students, older adults, and others working in the field.

This year the theme of the conference is Fresh Ideas for the New Old Age. We invite you to contribute to a two-day program that will lift up innovative solutions that address the needs of older adults and their families. We are especially interested in presenting solutions that involve collaborations among individuals, organizations, and communities to build age-friendly societies.

The Final Program is now available for download.
