AHWGO was started in 2009 in the San Francisco Bay Area by Susanne Stadler, an architect, and Natasha Boissier, a social worker, with the goal to promote an interdisciplinary dialogue among experts, thinkers, activists and designers on the topic of aging. Out of this exchange will evolve a network of people that work together to solve problems and suggest solutions for our society to be at home with growing old. AHWGO meets once a month in the San Francisco Bay Area. The AHWGO weblog extends the dialogue of these meetings.
