Meghan Young, MGS is the Associate Director for Opening Minds through Art at Scripps Gerontology Center. Her career in aging and the arts began in a service-learning class during her first year at Miami University when she facilitated storytelling experiences for residents living with dementia in nursing homes. Since then, Meghan has worked on research projects dedicated to making communities age- and dementia-friendly, instructed intergenerational service-learning courses for 4 years, and assisted long-term care providers with implementing arts-based activities for their residents. She believes everyone, regardless of age or ability, can share their life stories through the arts.
