We are united by our commitment to adult students, adult education professionals, degree programs for adults, and research supporting adult higher education.

Building Sustainable Futures for Adult Learners edited by Carrie J. Boden-McGill and Kathleen P. King is a refereed collection of papers published in conjunction with the joint Adult Higher Education Alliance (AHEA) and American Association of Adult and Continuing Education (AAACE) Conferences. This book will be the third in a series of peer reviewed publications associated with the annual AHEA conference. This series fills a unique niche in the field of adult education as it offers a venue for scholars and practitioners to present ideas in their conference papers, receive feedback from peers and attendees during conference sessions, and have some time to integrate that feedback into the final paper, which will be submitted one month after the conference. This model of scholarly dialogue and collaboration is the heart of the AHEA organization, and it will be showcased in the publication. We invite you to propose a chapter, based on your AHEA or AAACE presentation, to contribute to this exciting venture.
