The Massachusetts Healthy Aging Collaborative is pleased to promote the following events that support and promote inclusive age- and dementia friendly communities
- Updates to Upcoming Federal Changes to MassHealth – three virtual opportunities hosted by Health Care for All.
In July 2025, Congress passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OB3), which included the largest eligibility and funding cuts to Medicaid (MassHealth here in Massachusetts) in the program’s history.
In August 2026, Health Care For All hosted a series of free webinars to explain the upcoming changes to MassHealth resulting from OB3, including federal work requirements and more frequent eligibility renewals. Now, in November 2026, the organization will be hosting a series that provides updates and goes into further detail on the changes. Join us by registering for one of the following dates:
- Aging Well: A Community Approach to Growing Older – Monday, November 16 (in-person), Pryde Community Center, Hyde Park
What does it take to age well? Join the Social Innovation Forum on Monday, November 16, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at The Pryde Community Center in Hyde Park for an interactive gathering exploring how housing, transportation, financial security, healthcare, and community connections shape our ability to thrive as we grow older. Hear from experts, connect with fellow funders and community leaders, and explore how we can work across issue areas to support healthy aging and greater well-being.
RSVP here to join us for this timely conversation. Generously sponsored by the Stifler Family Foundation and hosted by LGBTQ Senior Housing.
