Every day, aging services professionals make change happen.

They solve complex challenges, inspire their teams, improve the lives of older adults, and strengthen the communities they serve. Change doesn't happen by chance—it happens because leaders are willing to learn, collaborate, and grow.

That's why we're excited to announce that registration is now open for the Change Makers: 2026 Annual Conference and 46th Annual Exhibitors Forum, taking place September 29–October 1 in Green Bay.

As Wisconsin's premier educational event for aging services professionals, Change Makers brings together leaders from across the continuum to share ideas, discover innovative solutions, and build the relationships that move our profession forward.

This year's conference includes:

• An inspiring keynote presentation from Greg J. Fine
• 42 educational sessions covering leadership, workforce, clinical excellence, operations, finance, senior housing, assisted living, nursing homes, quality improvement, and more
• Profession-based networking meetings that connect peers facing similar opportunities and challenges
• An interactive Exhibitors Forum featuring the latest products, services, and innovations for aging services providers
• Memorable networking events, including the Welcome Reception, Hospitality Reception, and Hosted Hop through downtown Green Bay

Whether you're looking for practical strategies to bring back to your organization, fresh perspectives to inspire your team, or meaningful conversations with colleagues who understand your work, you'll find it at Change Makers.

Join hundreds of aging services professionals from across Wisconsin as we celebrate the leaders who are shaping the future of our field—and discover new ways to make an even greater impact in your organization and community.

Register today and join us September 29–October 1 in Green Bay. Together, we'll continue making change happen.
