Practice Change Leaders for Aging and Health

Grant Summary

The Practice Change Leaders for Aging and Health Program, formerly the Practice Change Fellows program, will develop a total of 30 leaders over a three-year period. The program’s new name reflects the Foundation’s focus on the investment in change leaders as a means to improve health of older adults in communities around the United States. One goal of the program is to develop effective leaders who champion high-quality care and promote a prominent role for older adults in defining the type, intensity, and setting of care they choose to receive. Another is improvement in the actual organization and delivery of health care to older adults. The Atlantic Philanthropies and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are strong supporters, partners and co-funders of this program.
