A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED LEADER ADDRESSING THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES OF AGING THROUGH SERVICE, RESEARCH AND ADVOCACY

The Benjamin Rose Institute on Aging is a national leader pursuing innovation in practice and policy to address the important issues of aging. As a champion for older adults, BRIA works to advance their health, independence and dignity. The organization has established itself as a trusted resource for people who counsel, care for and advocate on behalf of older adults. In Spring, 2013, the Institute opened the state-of-the-art Conference Center at Benjamin Rose and began to offer programming to prepare executives, managers and practitioners to provide care and support that is responsive to the evolving demands of an aging population. Individual and foundation contributions, earned income, government reimbursements and endowment earnings combine to form a stable and sustainable operating model that ensures the organization’s second century.
