TFAH Age-Friendly Public Health Systems 2026 Webinar Series
Trust for America's Health (TFAH) is hosting a series of free webinars, open to all, as part of their monthly Age-Friendly Public Health Systems (AFPHS) training series. The next AFPHS webinar training on March 19 will highlight how public health professionals can use the Caring for Caregivers (C4C) Program framework to better support caregivers in their communities.
The AFPHS training series provides guidance on implementing each of the AFPHS 6Cs (based on the 6Cs Framework). Each session highlights specific examples of public health programs, policies and other activities that align with the 6Cs and advance healthy aging as a core function.
The March 19 training will cover how public health professionals can use the C4C program, developed at the Center for Excellence in Aging at Rush University. C4C is an evidence-based framework to improve care for older adults and their caregivers through education, resources, and support. The program focuses on what matters most to caregivers by helping them develop a plan that supports their physical and emotional health and well-being, while also incorporating the care needs and preferences of the older adult.
February 19: The Elder Mistreatment Prevention Toolkit for Public Health
January 15: AFPHS Training - Annual Training on Ageism
You can view recordings of each of the 2025, 2024 and 2023 trainings here on TFAH's AFPHS YouTube channel.
TFAH created an "AFPHS Champion" designation to recognize public health professionals who have committed to building their own knowledge and expertise and have a desire to lead their departments in becoming age-friendly. The program offers opportunities for recognition at three levels: Department of Health Recognition, Public Health Organization Recognition, and Individual Recognition. Go to the AFPHS enrollment page for information on becoming an AFPHS Champion.
