SLU Family Center for Healthy Aging
The SLU Family Center for Healthy Aging provides a comprehensive and collaborative center for older adult clinical, research, and training initiatives to our St. Louis and surrounding communities. The center is also a “hub” for the Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program (GWEP) grant, a five-year grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to help train and educate a future workforce of professionals serving older adults in our health care system. This center will help grow SLU older adult services and streamline several processes with the activities on the grant.
