CENTENNIAL, Colo., April 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Colorado Culture Change Coalition will host the 2011 Colorado ACCORD: Transforming The Culture of Aging and Disability in Colorado, April 18 and April 19 at the Denver Marriott Tech Center.  The keynote speakers will be Colorado's former first lady, Dottie Lamm, and Dr. Bill Thomas, an international authority on geriatric medicine and founder of The Eden Alternative.

The Colorado Culture Change Coalition is part of a national movement to create a more compassionate form of long-term care. The 2011 ACCORD will bring together long-term care leaders, policy makers, legislators, consumer advocates, state agency representatives and regulators from around the state and the nation. The goal of this conference is to build strong partnerships throughout the long-term care continuum in Colorado among  those who share common commitment to person-centered culture change transformation for elders and others requiring long-term care in Colorado.  The ACCORD features an inspiring roster of national speakers for the two-day conference.

The public is invited to a reception and free workshop on Monday evening, April 18, designed to help consumers learn more about how long-term care is changing, and how consumers can advocate for their loved ones, and themselves.  All are welcome. The reception is 6-7 PM, followed by the workshop 7-9 PM.
