Healthspan Action Coalition

What Healthspan Action Coalition does

Healthspan Action Coalition (HSAC), legally Healthspan Action Coalition, Inc., is a U.S.-based nonprofit advocacy organization founded in 2022 that operates as a worldwide cross-sector societal movement. Its mission is to advance medical strategies that intervene in the aging process and improve treatment of age-related diseases, and it serves four primary stakeholder groups: the science and research community, regulatory and policy makers, patient advocacy groups, and the healthcare industry. HSAC explicitly positions healthspan extension as a fundamental human right and advocates for increased government funding for longevity research, accelerated regulatory pathways, payment policies supporting regenerative medicine, and adoption of advanced testing technologies as alternatives to animal models. The organization is led by founder and Executive Director Bernard Siegel, with editor-in-chief Eve Herold overseeing the Healthspan Compass newsletter.

HSAC's product surface is content- and event-driven rather than technology-driven. Core offerings include the Healthspan Compass monthly newsletter (15,000+ subscribers), a news aggregation platform with over 334 archived pages, podcasts, video content, social media channels, the Translational Longevity Summit (co-presented with Boston Biolife, scheduled Oct 7-11, 2026 in Boston), and regional initiatives such as the Hawaii Healthspan Corridor and the Life Unvaped youth nicotine-awareness campaign. The coalition does not sell products or services and does not develop proprietary technology.

HSAC's revenue model is donation-based, with a voluntary contribution portal (via every.org) suggesting gifts of $100, $250, or $500 and a $50 minimum. Coalition membership is free for qualifying organizations. The organization is supported by individual donors, organizational members, and event sponsors, and is a recognized partner of XPRIZE Healthspan, a $101 million, 7-year global competition that has named 20 finalist teams working on therapeutics that extend healthy lifespan.

Others

• XPRIZE Foundation: Organization that runs large incentive competitions to drive breakthroughs in human aging (XPRIZE Healthspan). Listed as HSAC's flagship partner and a direct operational comparator in convening science, industry, and capital around audacious missions.

Broad incumbents

• AARP: Mass-membership U.S. organization advocating for people 50+ across health, financial security, and policy. Comparable as the dominant aging-advocacy incumbent whose policy influence and member base dwarf HSAC's.
• National Council on Aging (NCOA): Established U.S. nonprofit advocating for older adults' health, economic security, and policy access. Comparable as an aging-focused advocacy coalition with policy, education, and program activities, though broader in social services scope than HSAC.

Direct peers

• SENS Research Foundation: Nonprofit focused on developing rejuvenation biotechnologies to treat the root causes of aging. Comparable as a mission-aligned longevity organization that combines research advocacy, education, and coalition-building.
• Alliance for Aging Research: U.S. nonprofit that advocates for policy and research funding to improve healthspan and combat age-related disease. Closest direct peer to HSAC in mission, advocacy approach, and stakeholder mix of science, industry, and policymakers.
• Longevity Science Foundation: Nonprofit funding longevity research and education globally, with a mission to make healthy longevity accessible. Closely aligned with HSAC's goal of advancing healthspan research, access, and global policy adoption.
• American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR): Nonprofit that funds and champions aging research, trains scientists, and advocates for increased federal investment in aging biology. Overlaps with HSAC's research-funding and workforce-development priorities for the longevity field.

Emerging players

• Buck Institute for Research on Aging: Independent biomedical research institute focused on aging and age-related disease. Comparable as a longevity organization that bridges research, education, and outreach, though primarily a research entity rather than a pure advocacy coalition.
• Global Ageing Network: International network of aging services and advocacy organizations focused on policy, workforce, and quality of care for older adults. Comparable as a cross-border coalition aligned with HSAC's mission to improve aging outcomes worldwide.

Regional players

• International Longevity Centre (ILC): UK-based think tank producing research and policy recommendations on population ageing and longevity. Comparable as a longevity policy thought leader with international reach, complementing HSAC's U.S.-anchored advocacy.
