Help Shape the Future of Aging in Ohio: Get Involved with OAGE Committees
Help Shape the Future of Aging in Ohio:
Get Involved with OAGE Committees
The Ohio Association of Gerontology and Education (OAGE) is powered by the passion, expertise, and collaboration of members across the state who are committed to advancing aging services, education, research, and advocacy. One of the most meaningful ways to make an impact within OAGE and across Ohio is by joining an OAGE committee.
Our committees play a vital role in guiding the work of the organization, developing educational opportunities, strengthening professional connections, supporting students and emerging leaders, advancing advocacy efforts, and helping shape the future of aging services throughout the state. Whether you work in direct services, healthcare, academia, policy, research, community engagement, or aging network leadership, your voice and perspective matter.
Serving on a committee is also a valuable opportunity to:
- Build relationships with professionals across Ohio
- Share your expertise and ideas
- Develop leadership skills
- Contribute to statewide initiatives and programs
- Support innovation in aging services and gerontology
- Help elevate the voices and needs of older adults and professionals in the field
OAGE welcomes members at all stages of their careers including students, emerging professionals, seasoned practitioners, educators, and researchers. Diverse experiences and perspectives strengthen our work and help us better serve Ohio’s aging population.
As Ohio continues to lead in aging innovation and gerontology, OAGE committees remain an important space for collaboration, creativity, and impact. We encourage you to consider getting involved and becoming part of the conversations and initiatives shaping the future of aging across our state.
Together, we can continue building stronger systems, stronger communities, and stronger support for older Ohioans.
