Membership with LeadingAge Ohio means joining a network of senior services leaders committed to supporting, enabling and empowering Ohioans to live fully as they age.
LeadingAge Ohio offers a vast array of programs to meet the needs of our membership with a commitment to recognizing accomplishments in service from front line caregivers to industry leaders.
With regulatory initiatives and developments often taking center stage in our members’ quest for operational compliance, the ability to quickly learn the basics and have access to more in-depth information about regulatory initiatives and developments becomes critical.
LeadingAge Ohio advocates for policies that remove barriers to care, develop new services, improve reimbursement and make Ohio a better place to age. Our advocacy team tracks legislation and regulatory updates to make sure that policy makers understand how changes will impact our members and the people they serve.
But we can't do it all without you. Your work as an advocate is crucial to motivating legislators and other policymakers. We make it easy with a range of tools that summarize the issues, provide sample letters and help you contact your members of Congress.
The LeadingAge Ohio Political Action Committee supports lawmakers who have demonstrated commitment to and understanding of issues important to older Ohio, their caregivers, and the communities that serve them..
LeadingAge Ohio offers relevant and timely educational programs for professionals at all levels in your organization. These programs provide our members with opportunities to network and share ideas at workshops, our Annual Conference & Trade Show, and through distance learning. Many of our educational programs offer continuing education credits through Ohio’s Board of Executives of Long-term Services & Supports (BELTSS) as well as the Ohio Nurses Association.

When it comes time to find additional support and services for yourself or a loved one, you want to find the care that is right for you. Everyone is different.
