About us
The Senior Dining Association, driven by its mission of uniting industry partners and operators to collectively enhance the dining experience for residents, is uniquely positioned to unify this network. Launched from an operator’s perspective and fully equipped with the first-hand knowledge of the challenges facing providers, the SDA is the only organization exclusively focused on this field. National and regional events fueled by content-rich programming will provide not only a great educational opportunity for members, but a chance to create a sense of community within the industry. The hub of the SDA will be its website – SeniorDining.org – a daily destination for fresh content, professional resources, education and networking. Senior Dining Today, SDA’s print & digital magazine will make its debut during the summer of 2018. The foundation of the SDA’s innovation is in bringing together operators and industry partners. A limited number of Charter Memberships are available, due the exclusive benefit of joining the advisory committee, which is comprised of industry partners, operators & providers. This level of involvement presents an exceptional opportunity to help mold and position this groundbreaking association and gain increased exposure to purchasing decision makers through a vast array of advertising and branding opportunities. Food is the heart of any senior living community. And while the industry evolves, that core truth remains consistent. By increasing access to the resources needed for long-term sustainability and channeling the experiences of industry leaders, the Senior Dining Association has the perfect ingredients for a new era in senior dining. #seniordining #seniordiningassociation #seniorliving
