May 31 to June 4
Mark your calendars. AAHSA’s 2010 Homecoming week celebration will be held from May 31-June 4.
This year, our homecoming theme is Who Decides?. We’re asking AAHSA members to host a roundtable discussion at their organization where consumers, business leaders, policy makers and other community members can come together and discuss the challenges and opportunities that come as our population ages.
Check out our Homecoming planning guide, which features program ideas, media relations tips and sample resources you can use to host a successful event.
Review the PowerPoint from the "AAHSA Homecoming Week Event Planning" Webinar that was conducted by GlynnDevins Advertising & Marketing.
Once you have set a date, tell us your plans so we can feature you on our blog and in our media outreach.
