This session is the first webinar in the Coalition for Home Repair's 2024 Aging in Place Cohort series. This session will improve participants' understanding of what aging means and the many ways that older people contribute to our society. This training, facilitated by the National Center to Reframe Aging, relies on tested strategies and evidence-informed tools that have been found to reduce implicit bias against older people. We will also learn to speak more inclusively about the clients we serve.

Attendees will earn 1 hour of continuing education credit for the following NAHB professional designations: CAPS, CGA, CGB, CGR, GMB and GMR.

The Coalition for Home Repair provides funding, advocacy, and educational resources for organizations and institutions that ensure the preservation of safe, healthy, affordable housing for all. The Coalition began as a conference of like-minded organizations seeking ways to share wisdom, resources, and best practices within the home repair and rehab community. Out of that was born a national trade association and a foundation that brought together organizations from across the country to make our collective stronger. Today, we're a coalition of nonprofits, local governments, and churches who repair homes and partner with businesses, sponsors, other nonprofits and individuals to make a bigger impact.
