What is the Leaders Network?

Certified Senior Advisors (CSAs) have united in their local areas to build a strong network of CSAs along with other professionals working with older adults in academia, for and non-profits, senior coalitions, professional associations, government aging agencies, Area Agencies on Aging (AAA), and members of organizations such as the American Society on Aging (ASA). Their goals are to develop valuable strategic partnerships, further their education, and work together to inform and educate the public about the value of working with professionals who have earned and maintain a professionally relevant credential, such as the CSA, which is monitored by a third party accreditation organization.

The Leaders Network provides business presentations, education programs, community outreach and volunteer opportunities. The Leaders Network works with the Society of Certified Senior Advisors to inform professionals who work with older adults about the importance of educating themselves about health, social, legal, finance, technology and ethics in the world of aging.
