Recognizing those who set the gold standard
The Gold Standard of Optimal Aging Award Ceremony celebrates older adults, aged 85 years and over, who lead engaged and flourishing lives and inspire those around them with their zest for life. This is an Optimal Aging Month signature event organized each year by the UofL Trager Institute Republic Bank Foundation Optimal Aging Clinic to create an age-friendly culture in our community.
