The 2024 NEO Aging and Disability Summit will be on Friday, September 27 from 8:30 AM–4:30 PM at the Cleveland Marriott East located at 26300 Harvard Road in Warrensville Heights.

This annual professional development and networking event is co-convened by the Cuyahoga County Division of Senior and Adult Services (DSAS), the MetroHealth System, and the Western Reserve Area Agency on Aging (WRAAA).

For three decades, the summit has brought together professionals dedicated to improving the lives of older adults and individuals with disabilities.  Last year's event saw over 400 attendees, including professionals, older adults, and caregivers, engaging in enriching discussions and presentations.  This year, organizers are excited to celebrate 30 years of the summit with an even bigger and better event!

They are delighted to welcome back four-time Emmy-award-winning journalist Ben Holbert as the emcee for the day.  The summit will feature a dynamic keynote presentation by Dr. James Campbell, the director of the geriatric center at the Senior Health & Wellness Center, professor of family medicine at Case Western Reserve University, and medical director of Jennings Center for Older Adults.

Attendees can look forward to innovative presentations on the evolving care of older adults, public health challenges contributing to premature death and disability in Cleveland, and strategies for adopting behaviors that promote a longer, healthier life.  Esteemed professionals and experts in the field of aging and disability will share their insights, making this a must-attend event for anyone involved in this critical area of work.
