December 15, 2011 Send a loud message:
"We Must Reauthorize the Older Americans Act!"
The Older Americans' Act (OAA) is supposed to be reauthorized in 2011 but reauthorization has yet to happen. With every day that passes the future of critical programs that serve seniors is more and more uncertain.
Send a message to your member(s) of Congress and tell them we must reauthorize the OAA. Take action now. Since 1965, the OAA has provided services and supports that improve seniors' lives whether they are in their own homes or nursing homes. These include services such as meals, health programs, and transportation that keep older adults in their homes; ombudsman program services that protect older adults in long- term care facilities; and elder prevention and legal services that protect seniors no matter where they live. Read more about OAA here. |
