To coincide with our new campaign, “Aging Services Workforce Now,” LeadingAge held a Congressional Briefing on July 20 for Senate and House staff. The briefing was an opportunity for LeadingAge to share details on the aging services workforce crisis and highlight specific policy opportunities Congress could take to meet the needs of older Americans in the face of persistent and severe workforce shortage for aging services providers.
LeadingAge Calls on Congress to implement meaningful solutions to ensure seniors have access to care and services. LeadingAge provider members also shared details on the severe workforce challenges they are facing across the long-term care continuum. Here is an article on the briefing.
