New Lyrics across the Lifespan 2012 SOPHE Midyear Scientific Conference

Preliminary Program


Join Us Join us for the Society for Public Health Education’s (SOPHE) 2012 Midyear Scientific Conference, “Tuning Up Health Promotion: New Lyrics across the Lifespan.” Older adults represent approximately 13% of the US population and are among the fastest growing age groups. Given this dramatic demographic shift, it is timely to explore the determinants of healthy aging; identify policy and other interventions that promote healthy aging; and assist in the translation of effective healthy aging interventions into sustainable community-based programs. Additionally, we must look “upstream” across all populations to address the social and behavioral factors that have a greater influence on longevity than genetics. To improve our nation’s health, innovative health education and communication interventions are needed across all age segments, with a particular focus on communities and populations that bear a disproportionate burden of illness and disease. Conference Objectives This 2 ½ day conference will enable attendees to: • Apply evidence-based and/or best practices that promote healthy aging and quality of life, addressing social justice and health disparities, as well as the intergenerational roles of aging adults; • Identify conceptual frameworks for environmental or policy interventions at the organizational, community, state and national levels to reduce chronic disease and injury;

• Develop multi-level strategies to improve equity from pre-conception to end of life that integrate health with non-health factors such as education, employment, housing, and transportation; • Explore cutting-edge theory, research, tools and strategies in health communications and media that are relevant to various ages and demographic audiences.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? All health education specialists, health communicators, gerontologists, behavioral scientists, faculty and students whose work extends to: • • • • • • •
