Healthy Aging Data Report
Detailed data about Connecticut’s changing demographics provides an important starting point for conversations about embracing opportunity and innovating systems to enable people to thrive across the lifespan.
In partnership with the Gerontology Institute of the John W. McCormack Graduate School of Policy and Global Studies at the University of Massachusetts and the Point32Health Foundation, the Collaborative released a first-of-its kind Connecticut Healthy Aging Data Report in 2021, updated in 2025.
We encourage you to visit your community’s healthy aging profile. Each profile contains estimates for 152 health indicators, including population characteristics, chronic conditions, behavioral health, and social isolation.
In reviewing your profile, we also encourage you to consider the impact of race, ethnicity, and gender on healthy aging.
