On behalf of the team at LeadingAge Kansas, we want to thank each and every person who joined us for last week’s Change Makers Spring Conference in Manhattan. From providers to vendors to speakers, it was wonderful to be able to visit with you all and grow together to make a difference for seniors in Kansas.  

If you have any feedback about the conference, like your favorite session, a topic you wish had been included, recommendations to improve the conference next year, don’t hesitate to reach out to addy@leadingagekansas.org.  

Thank you as well to CARF, United Healthcare, and Sunshine Meadows Retirement Community for generously sponsoring our 2026 Spring Conference. 

We can’t wait to see you in Salina on September 24 for our Fall Conference!
