Our Mission

OHA affiliates have a strong history of engaging in geriatric and gerontological-focused research, and they have joined OHA for the purpose of advancing its mission:

The Office of Healthy Aging is here to promote the practice of gerontology through collaborative research efforts and education at ECU in order to better serve the greater Greenville community through healthy aging-related events and programs.

OHA affiliates work to exchange and integrate discipline-specific knowledge, methods, and resources to achieve our common goal of advancing healthy aging through transdisciplinary research, education, and service-based initiatives.
