Harvey's lecture will be broadcast live to Iowa State University, the University of Iowa, and Des Moines Area Community College through the ICN.
"We are very excited to have the opportunity to learn from Donna," said Elaine Eshbaugh, associate professor of Gerontology at UNI. "She advocates tirelessly for aging Iowans and their families, and I can't say enough about her work in the Cedar Valley and across the state."
Harvey was appointed to her position by Governor Terry Brandstad in 2011. Prior to this, she was the exective director of the Hawkeye Valley Area Agency on Aging in Waterloo.
The event is free and open to the public.
