The AROHE Virtual Summit 2022 featured an engaging fireside chat, led by Paul Irving, senior fellow at the Milken Institute, founding chair of its Center for the Future of Aging, and distinguished scholar-in-residence at the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, and moderated by Helen Dennis, nationally recognized columnist, author, and speaker on issues of aging and the new retirement.

Both Mr. Irving and Ms. Dennis are highly respected experts in the field of positive aging and have been recognized for their innovative leadership and contributions. They discussed the upside of aging, purpose, and possibilities as we age, ideas for dispelling ageism, the merits of intergenerational engagement, and more.
