2021 Honoree | Katie Smith Sloan, President and CEO of LeadingAge
Katie Smith Sloan has advocated on behalf of older adults for more than 30 years. Sloan is the President and CEO of LeadingAge, a national organization representing more than 5,000 organizations in aging services. She is also the Executive Director of The Global Ageing Network, an international network of leaders in aging services dedicated to enhancing the quality of care for the aging population. Sloan serves on the boards of numerous organizations in the field of aging. Her leadership—especially during the COVID-19 pandemic—gives voice to the economic, social, and racial inequities that are too frequently experienced by older adults across the country and right here in our region.
