ALCA Celebrates Aging Life Care® Month with Free “Ask an Aging Life Care Manager®” Sessions in May
TUCSON, Ariz., April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In celebration of National Aging Life Care Month this May, the Aging Life Care Association® (ALCA) is proud to offer a unique opportunity for family caregivers, solo-agers, and anyone navigating the complexities of aging. Fridays throughout May, ALCA will host free, small group “Ask an Aging Life Care Manager” conversations – an opportunity to get expert advice and personalized guidance from leading Aging Life Care Professionals.
Each 45-minute session is limited to ensure an intimate, engaging, and informative experience. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, explore aging care options, and discover how an Aging Life Care Manager can offer support through every step of the aging journey.
“These sessions are a way for us to give back to the community and raise awareness about the critical services our professionals provide,” says Nina Pflumm Herndon ALCA’s President. “Whether you’re caring for an aging parent, preparing for your own future as a solo-ager, or simply curious about the resources available, these sessions are designed to provide clarity, comfort, and connection to available resources.”
The sessions will introduce the full spectrum of Aging Life Care™ services, from an initial assessment to care coordination and advocacy to housing transitions and health care navigation, helping families and individuals make confident, informed decisions.
In its 14th year celebrating National Aging Life Care Month, ALCA hopes to not only increase awareness of the professional services available but also attract more people to this growing profession. Aging Life Care Managers come from a variety of backgrounds in the health and human services fields, including social work, nursing, gerontology, mental health, as well as occupational, physical, and recreational therapies.
