Age Well: “Aging in America” — Film Screening & Live Conversation

Americans are living longer than ever before, but longer life does not always mean better life. As healthcare advances and lifespans extend, many families are asking difficult questions about affordability, caregiving, ageism and quality of life. In partnership with The John A. Hartford Foundation, join us for this special screening of “Aging in America: Survive or Thrive,” a PBS documentary narrated by Martin Sheen and based on Dr. Robert Butler’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book, “Why Survive?”. This thoughtful film explores the challenges and opportunities of aging in the United States today. Following our screening, we’ll enjoy a live discussion with producers Dr. Ken Dychtwald and Neil Steinberg, using questions submitted in our Q&A by participants like you.

This presentation is part of our “Age Well” series, designed to provide valuable insights, expert guidance, and practical tools for navigating the aging journey with confidence. Your online presentation will take place live over the course of 1-2 hours. All times are listed in the EASTERN time zone. If you live in a different time zone, please adjust your schedule accordingly. This live online experience uses Zoom Webinar, an easy-to-use web video service that includes closed captioning. All you need is an Internet connection and your computer. You will receive a confirmation email when you enroll, and a reminder email one week and one day before, as well as the morning of the event with a link and instructions on how to tune in. You will not be pictured on screen during the lecture, but you will have the opportunity to ask the instructor live questions using the Q&A box. Unless otherwise noted, all those who enroll in this program receive access to the live event as well as a recording of the lecture that you can watch any time within the two weeks following the live event.
