Produced by the American Society on Aging, LeverAGE focuses squarely on the intersection of aging and public policy, a space where personal stories meet political realities. This isn't about generic wellness tips; it's about the systems that shape our later years. Each episode brings forward the voices of those directly engaged in the fight for a more equitable landscape, from seasoned policy analysts dissecting legislation to grassroots organizers mobilizing communities. You'll hear conversations that dig into the specifics of social security, healthcare access, housing, and economic security, all through the lens of how policy is made and who it serves. The LeverAGE podcast creates a vital forum within the ASA community and beyond, examining both the current challenges and the emerging opportunities to build a society that better supports people as they age. It’s for anyone who believes that aging well is not just a personal responsibility but a collective one, requiring thoughtful dialogue and deliberate action. Tune in for grounded, insightful discussions that move beyond headlines to the human impact of the politics of aging.
