In 2001, Phoebe launched the Phoebe Institute on Aging, a forward-focused program aiming to provide forums for discussion and learning, including educational programs, cooperative ventures, and outreach activities designed to promote improved quality of life and care for the aging and their families.

The Phoebe Institute on Aging was created in recognition of more than a century of caring for older adults at Phoebe. Guided by a community advisory board and supported by community-staffed committees, the Phoebe Institute on Aging works diligently to engage with the greater community and to ensure the availability of expert and cutting-edge resources to continually improve service to the aging and their families.

Conferences held by the Phoebe Institute on Aging attract key figures in the disciplines and communities associated with aging services, including CEOs, legislators, and award-winning scholars. All told, the Phoebe Institute on Aging educated nearly 1,000 people in 2016 alone.

• Establishing cooperative research and educational programs with local colleges and universities
