HBCU Aging Ambassadors Program

HBCU Aging Ambassadors Program (HAAP)

The HBCU Aging Ambassadors Program empowers and advances scholars interested in researching aging Black Americans.

HAAP will provide HBCU scholars with a platform for professional development and cohort building, fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for the ambassadors to thrive in their research endeavors. Additionally, the program provides travel support to the ambassadors to attend the annual Gerontological Society of America conference, enhancing their exposure to cutting-edge research and facilitating knowledge exchange within the broader scientific community.

Through these initiatives, the HBCU Aging Ambassadors Program aims to cultivate a dynamic and inclusive space for advancing research on aging Black communities.
