Dear Friends,

At the beginning of this new year, the California Council on Gerontology and Geriatrics is excited to announce our new membership structure. We hope the revised membership fees help both current and prospective CCGG members engage in a number of network opportunities we are bringing to you this year.  The annual membership is valid on a calendar year basis (January 1 – December 31).  (As a thank you to those of you that joined in 2021 under the previous membership structure, we will provide a free 2022 membership to you!).

Renew or start your membership by signing up through our website (https://ccgg.org/join-ccgg/).  Please share this news with your friends and colleagues, too!  You can find more information about upcoming events on our website (ccgg.org), Facebook and Instagram.

We hope to see you soon!

For any questions or suggestions related to CCGG membership, please send your message to CCGG Vice President Emiko Takagi (etakagi@sfsu.edu).

Share Your Expertise & Insights!     For Senior Living operators, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the way they provide care and services to residents and their families, as well as the manner in which they lead their teams and conduct business and daily operations. Through it all, their commitment to the safety and well-being of everyone involved, while supporting the highest quality of life possible for residents has remained steady and strong. As CALA looks to build educational programs in 2022 that provide helpful insights, best practices and lessons learned – with an eye toward navigating the present while holding a vision for the future – we invite you to consider submitting a proposal. Whether you’re from within or outside the profession, the possibilities for learning transfer and engagement are endless: from wellness to technology, resident and dementia care, leadership development, marketing, legal and regulatory considerations, business practices and more. If you’re interested in sharing your expertise and insights by presenting an engaging, interactive learning session with practical, ready-to-use take-aways, please take a moment to explore the Submission Guidelines and consider how spending a little time with us is a win-win proposition.
