By 2050, the 65-and-older age group is expected to grow by 75 percent, while the 35-to-54 age group will grow by only 2 percent. Not only is the workforce aging, but the supply of younger workers is diminishing in comparison.

4 Awarded first military veteran scholarship Meet Jessica Jessica Collins’ military career began on September 10, 2001, one day before the start of boot camp at the Recruit Training Command in Illinois and one day before the devastating attacks of 9/11. After completing boot camp, Jessica spent 11 years in the military, where she was deployed twice and worked as a naval cryptologist. After transitioning from the military to a career in HR, Jessica made specific plans of what she wanted to accomplish--and one of the items on her list was attending the SHRM Annual Conference. We were able to make that a reality in 2016. “I made a “to-do” list of events I wanted to attend, people I wanted to meet and goals I wanted to achieve—SHRM Annual Conference was high on that list—and the SHRM Foundation made my attendance possible!”6
