Guided by the evidence-based Age Inclusivity Domains of Higher Education (AIDHE) model, we adopted a multifaceted approach to launch our AFU status and foster campus-wide awareness and engagement across the seven domains. The AIDHE model outlines that campus-wide strategies for this launch should focus on raising awareness, providing information and education, and assessing campus constituents. Our first goal was to raise awareness of age diversity, friendliness, and inclusivity on campus. A multi-tiered approach began by forming a coalition with The Inspired Network center for teaching, learning, and faculty development and engaging in conversations with administration and key staff from various domains,  \n564 Innovation in Aging, 2025, Vol. 9, No. S2  \nincluding advancement, OLLI, the Academy of Senior Professionals, admissions, and human resources. This was followed by an AFU Lunch and Learn for faculty, staff, and community members to raise broader awareness about our designation, highlight the value of working in an age-diverse environment, and assess attendees’ specific resource needs to inform future practices.  \nTo broaden student awareness, a Careers in Aging Month event was planned to provide information about AFUs and opportunities in the field of aging. Subsequently, an assessment of non-traditional student experiences at the college led to the development of a student club designed for this population. Our overarching strategy, other Age-Friendly initiatives aiding in this launch, and specific resource needs will be discussed.","cbCailGZMmkYkXsj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailGZMmkYkXsj","pdf",1017778,"English","# Building awareness and engagement\n## AFU designation and AIDHE guidance\n## Campus coalition and Lunch and Learn\n## Student-facing initiatives and assessment","[{\"question\":\"What framework guided Eckerd College’s AFU launch?\",\"answer\":\"The college followed the evidence-based Age Inclusivity Domains of Higher Education (AIDHE) model, which emphasizes awareness, information and education, and assessment across campus stakeholders.\"},{\"question\":\"How did Eckerd College build campus-wide awareness and engagement?\",\"answer\":\"It formed a coalition with an education and faculty development center, engaged administration and key staff across domains, and hosted an AFU Lunch and Learn for faculty, staff, and community members.\"},{\"question\":\"What student-focused activities supported the AFU launch?\",\"answer\":\"The college planned a Careers in Aging Month event to inform students about AFUs and aging-field opportunities, then assessed non-traditional student experiences to develop a dedicated student club.\"}]","BUILDING AWARENESS AND ENGAGEMENT - LAUNCHING ECKERD COLLEGE’S AGE-FRIENDLY UNIVERSITY STATUS | PDF",1790639560]
