LeadingAge Oklahoma 2026 Annual Conference

Mark your calendar for the 2026 LeadingAge Oklahoma Annual Conference—our signature gathering of thought leaders, professionals, and changemakers in aging services. This two-day event will be a hub for inspiration, connection, and innovation.

This year’s conference will be held March 3-4, 2026, at the Reed Conference Center in Midwest City, Oklahoma.

Change Makers

This year’s conference theme — Changemakers — celebrates the bold spirit that drives our field forward. It’s about those who dare to ask what’s possible and then roll up their sleeves to make it real. It’s about pushing past what has been to create what can be—for our organizations, our teams and the people we serve. We are advancing careers, strengthening communities, and reimagining aging services with courage and purpose.

Who is the audience at the 2026 LeadingAge Oklahoma Annual Conference?

The Conference attracts 250 to 350 attendees from the long term care profession. The audience includes organizational leaders and staff from the fields of nursing/clinical care, finance, human resources, social services/pastoral care, activities/therapeutic recreation, environmental services & facility maintenance, marketing, fundraising, home and community-based services (HCBS), independent living, assisted living, and long term care/skilled nursing.
