Willo Carey
Executive Director, WHYY Wider Horizons
Willo Carey is Executive Director of Wider Horizons, a multimedia service developed by WHYY, the premier public broadcasting service for the Greater Philadelphia market, to address the needs and interests of the growing population approaching and in the second half of life - baby boomers planning their retirement or new careers, retirees and active elders, children of aging parents, and the frail homebound.

She serves on the External Advisory Board of the University of Pennsylvania’s Institute on Aging and the Advisory Board of the Delaware Valley Schweitzer Fellows Program and is past Vice Chair of the Philadelphia Corporation for Aging.
