Underwriting
Our member-driven, mission-directed work requires funding above traditional membership dues. Underwriting funding is directed exclusively toward initiatives prescribed by the Argentum Board of Directors.
Special thanks to Willis Towers Watson for underwriting support of the Senior Living IQ Initiative.
Argentum’s Corporate Partnership with Willis Towers Watson is focused on developing research related to human capital benefits benchmarking in senior living and risk management practices across the industry.

Recognizing the collective importance of the quality program to senior living, underwriters:
- Provide financial support needed based upon an outlined plan and expected budget
- Provide other resources, human capital, and research in an effort to advance the initiative
- Are an active and proud participant in the initiative
