ESAS combines a passion for creating leaders and scholars in aging with a genuine connection to real world applications. The unique strength of our community is that it brings together so many exceptionally talented people of different backgrounds, lived experiences, interests, approaches and methodologies. Our goal, since our founding in 2005, is to integrate aging issues, business management and public policy. Our business orientation \u2013 applicable to nonprofit, for profit and government sectors encourages leadership and entrepreneurial behavior.<\/p>

We created and continue to refine a distinctive interdisciplinary and integrated educational approach combining the critical elements of aging studies, management, and public policy. This unique model includes an active learning environment based in practice in addition to theory. Collaborators with ESAS have the opportunity to extend their interdisciplinary efforts further through partnerships with other units within UMBC including the Hilltop Institute, School of Public Policy and the PhD in Gerontology. Our curriculum includes all aspects of aging services, with particular emphasis on expanding opportunities for individuals in the longevity economy. Students, both full and part-time, can earn a B.A., M.A. and Accelerated B.A. \/M.A. and a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in the Management of Aging Services.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Known as the Riverside Center for Excellence in Aging and Lifelong Health, CEALH continues its nonprofit work to fulfill its mission to improve the quality of life for older adults by integrating academic, clinical and health services research with the capabilities of local service providers to develop and implement innovative community-based and healthcare system initiatives that can be replicated and sustained by Riverside Health System.<\/p>

CEALH places special focus on applied research for operationally sustainable programming to meet the needs of the most vulnerable members of our community, a critical element of population health management. The organization’s vision is to lead the development of model communities that will promote the well-being and independence of older adults through translational research and widespread application. CEALH continues to focus on identifying areas of need within the populations they serve, developing pilot programs and working with the health system and community partners to implement the pilots on a broad scale. CEALH’s ability to bring community partners together with the common goal of improving healthcare for older adults is critical as the baby-boom age wave continues to grow and accompanying public policy is put in place to improve the nation’s approach to healthcare.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Graduate Certificate in Sociology<\/strong> is designed to provide a solid post-baccalaureate foundation in Sociology. The six-course curriculum provides graduate-level training for those students who have a Master\u2019s degree in another field but may plan on teaching some of the most common sociology courses offered at the undergraduate level (e.g., Introduction to Sociology, Social Problems, Sociology of the Family, and Social Inequality). It also provides training in Sociological Theory and Research Methods, which will not only aid in teaching but also provide foundational knowledge for further graduate study in sociology. Overall, the 18 credit hours earned will typically qualify students who also hold a master’s degree in another field of study to teach sociology courses at most colleges and universities nationwide.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The Aging, Health, and Society Program<\/strong> in the Department of Sociology prepares students for careers requiring graduate-level knowledge and skills in areas relating to aging populations and their health, as well as training towards pursuing advanced degrees. Emphasis is placed on knowledge about sociological and related processes of normal aging; social factors that influence health outcomes; theory, research, and professional career preparation; and public policies pertaining to older populations and the delivery of health care. The program also is approved by the NC Division of Health Service Regulation to offer the Administrator-in-Training Program.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

At Mom\u2019s Meals, we believe better health should be accessible to all, and it begins with the very meals we eat. We started Mom\u2019s Meals\u00ae, A PurFoods\u00ae Company, to help people\u2014like us\u2014who care for loved ones and want to make sure they have access to high-quality, nutritious meals. Barb Anderson\u2014the Mom of \u201cMom\u2019s Meals\u201d\u2014needed a way to ensure her own mother was able to eat regular, nutritious meals. Our kitchens grew from a small room in Nevada, IA to today\u2019s innovative operations that can deliver meals to any address in all 50 states.<\/p>

We are committed to using nutrition to improve health, lower the total cost of care, manage chronic conditions, and allow individuals to remain independent\u2014whether they want to age in place or just need a few weeks of support following a hospital stay. Our meals are designed by chefs and dietitians, with a combined focus on taste and nutritional guidelines. Clients consistently tell us they prefer the taste of our refrigerated meals to those of other home meal providers and appreciate that they get to choose every meal, every delivery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
