Untold Stories of Aging: An Art- and Media-Based Community Action Project

Friday, October 25, 2024
3:00 PM – 3:30 PM CT
Location: KC Convention Center, Poster 9A
The Untold Stories of Aging Project was designed by BSW and MSW students engaged in a gerontological social work scholarship program. The project was inspired by the need to foster intergenerational connection, reveal diverse ways of aging well in society, and inspire other professionals to pursue a focus on aging.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Attendees will be able to describe creative and empowering ways to engage BSW and MSW students in educational leadership and professional development opportunities within social work programs.
  2. Attendees will be able to describe the utility of reimagining more diverse and non-normative pathways for aging.
  3. Attendees will be able to describe the importance of imagining aging futures in concrete and diverse ways.
