Building on insights from our previous “Take-It-to-the-Street” session, this presentation takes a deeper dive into the data shaping today’s aging services experience. Drawing from interviews, research findings, and partner collaboration, we explore how public perception and resident realities intersect to influence community life. At the center of the discussion is the Community Life Cycle, a framework that examines the evolving stages of resident experience, from the excitement of move-in to long-term engagement and later phases of community living. Participants will gain insight into how environment, programming, and culture impact residents’ physical needs, social connections, and overall sense of purpose. This session provides practical guidance for providers, marketers, and designers seeking to align community design and engagement strategies with the real expectations and lived experiences of residents. By understanding each phase of the life cycle, organizations can create environments and programs that foster belonging, well-being, and meaningful living at every stage of the journey.
