"I enjoy attending the 55+ Housing Council monthly meeting because I am able to connect with a broad range of professionals in the 55+ housing community. I also enjoy the stimulating and informational programming. Each month the Program Committee comes up with a new and interesting program featuring top 55+ housing professionals. Programs investigate current areas of interest as well as examine future trends in 55+ housing."

"The 55+ Housing Council has been a guiding light for people trying to enter this marketplace. This market is challenging and needs some very specific information and assistance, and the 55+ Housing Council has been providing this guidance for a great many years. I served on their first Board of Directors as a Gerontologist."

"With 10,000 people a day turning 65 for the next 20 years, providing a new generation of housing for them will become a huge part of the homebuilding industry. And the needs, wants and desires of that demographic are constantly changing. There is no better place to find out where this market is heading than the 55+ Housing Council. Although I have been a part of this Council for nearly 20 years, I still learn something new at each breakfast meeting or tour I attend and the information is invaluable. I would not be able to meet the design needs of tomorrows active adult housing without today’s 55+ Housing Council."

“For those of us in the homebuilding industry, this is a time that invites innovation. Every month the BIASC 55+ Housing Council puts on a fresh program that tells me something I didn't know about this multifaceted market opportunity. It's a nice-sized crowd of smart people willing to engage in meaningful conversation about designing for seniors.”
