As senior living preferences shift with the arrival of the Boomer generation, the role of independent living is being redefined. Will it evolve into the new assisted living—where residents age in place with services brought in as needed—or will it face obsolescence? Could it be repositioned to serve the cost-conscious middle market consumer? 

Join us for an interactive session that explores the changing dynamics of independent living. We’ll dive into key questions, such as: Who will be the target resident in the next decade? How will their needs and expectations shape the future of this housing model? 

Discover how independent living can stay relevant and meet the evolving desires of tomorrow’s seniors.
