2026 Annual Conference Registration Open

Registration is now open for the 2026 LeadingAge Ohio Annual Conference and Trade Show, where aging services professionals from across Ohio will come together to learn from one another, hear new ideas from the field, and connect with exhibitors offering tools and resources that support mission-driven work across the care continuum. This year’s conference returns to the Columbus Hilton at Easton from August 25th to August 27th. Attendees can now register for the conference, view the full session schedule, and make plans to join colleagues for this year’s program, built around the theme, Celebrating the Changemakers.

This year’s conference will also feature several ways to take part beyond attendance. Members and partners can nominate a changemaker for the Hall of Changemakers, a conference recognition created to honor a person or LeadingAge Ohio member whose work, leadership, or compassion has made a lasting difference. Organizations interested in increasing their visibility can explore sponsorship opportunities, and companies that want to connect directly with attendees can reserve a trade show booth while space remains available. The keynote session, “See ME: The Power of Person-Centered Care”, will be presented by Petra Marquart, who will examine why service matters more than ever in aging services and how person-centered care can build trust, strengthen relationships, and support organizational success.
