INFO: Call for Papers for Seniors Housing & Care Journal

Seniors Housing & Care Journal is accepting submissions for its September 2013 issue. Submissions are due April 1, 2013.

Published by the National Investment Center for the Seniors Housing & Care Industry and the Mather LifeWays Institute on Aging, the Journal is an open-access, peer-reviewed academic journal that disseminates empirically based research regarding the seniors housing and care fields; addresses critical issues faced by senior care professionals; and is relevant to the day-to-day operation of senior communities.

The
Journal accepts research papers (original reports of completed research) and brief reports (pilot studies about innovative ideas for senior housing and care with implications for future research). Occasionally, a limited number of commentaries addressing emerging issues faced by the senior housing and care industry and brief reviews of new resources available to practitioners in the field may be accepted for publication.


SHCJ also offers annual awards with honoraria for up to two outstanding research papers each year. This year the award is sponsored by Prudential Real Estate Investors.

I'd be happy to answer any questions as well.
