Every May, the Administration for Community Living (ACL) leads the nation’s observance of Older Americans Month (OAM). The theme for 2024 is Powered by Connection, which recognizes the profound impact that meaningful relationships and social connections have on our health and well-being. Older Americans Month is a time for us to recognize and honor older adults and their immense influence on every facet of American society. Through their wealth of life experience and wisdom, older adults guide our younger generations and carry forward abundant cultural and historical knowledge. They improve our communities through intergenerational relationships, community service, civic engagement, and many other activities. Our communities benefit when people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds have the opportunity to participate and live independently. Older Americans Month is a time to recognize the contributions of our older citizens and promote programs and activities that foster connection, inclusion, and support for older adults. Programs and activities like those we offer at our senior activity centers!

In honor of Older Americans Month, we invite you to join us for a Powered by Connection luncheon on Friday, May 31, where you can connect with your friends and show just how important maintaining those connections with others are! See details about the luncheon on the flyer in this newsletter.
