Tideswell at UCSF AGS and Emerging Leaders in Aging Scholar Program - Call for Applications for 2024-2025 Cohort

The Tideswell at UCSF, AGS, and Emerging Leaders in Aging Scholar Program is designed for advanced junior or mid-career health professionals with a clear commitment to the field of aging and a leadership role in a clinical, research, education, or policy program focused on advancing the care of older adults. It is for those seeking to transform the field and lead the next generation of health professionals. We welcome applications from health professionals including, but not limited to
physicians, nurses, pharmacists, psychologists, social workers, physical and occupational therapists, and non-clinicians with evidence of training or experience in aging. An academic affiliation is not required.

We are looking for emerging leaders committed to creating communities where ageism, ableism, classism, homophobia, racism, sexism, xenophobia, and other forms of bias and discrimination no longer impact healthcare access, quality, and outcomes for older adults and their caregivers.

The program, designed to enhance and leverage existing leadership skills, consists of activities from September to May, with the anticipation that the community of scholars from all cohorts will remain meaningful colleagues throughout their careers.

Program components:

• A three-day workshop (September 25-27, 2024) at University of California, San Francisco
• Six monthly 1-hour small-group videoconferences with senior advisors and including independent readings and assignments;
• Completion of a Leadership Practicum with mentorship from program advisors and a local institution mentor selected by the applicant;
• A two-day workshop (May 5-6, 2025) that includes a presentation of your Practicum to AGS leaders, (immediately preceding the 2025 AGS Annual Meeting) in Chicago, IL;
