In this episode, host Debbie Stadtler sits down with Clif Porter II, CEO of the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living, to reflect on his first year in this dual leadership role. Porter shares key accomplishments from the past year—including meaningful progress on Medicaid reform and staffing mandates—while emphasizing the importance of staying connected to the “why” behind their mission and recognizing the diversity and purpose-driven nature of long-term care careers. Looking ahead to 2026, Porter discusses top priorities such as strengthening regulatory environments, addressing challenges with Medicare Advantage plans, and supporting a resilient workforce. He also underscores the critical role members play in shaping policy, calling for deeper engagement with Congress and continued advocacy for the sector.
