MAY IS OLDER AMERICAN MONTH

Each year in May, we commemorate Older American Month to recognize the countless contributions that older adults make to our communities.

The theme for Older American Month 2023 is “Aging Unbound”. Aging Unbound offers an opportunity to explore diverse aging experiences and discusses how communities can combat stereotypes.

There are many aspects of growing older. Everyone has a role to play in combating ageism. There are many benefits when older adults remain engaged, independent and included in their communities.
