“Get into The Act!” That’s the theme for this year’s Older Americans’ Month, which is celebrated every May. This year also represents the 50th year of the Older Americans Act. When Older Americans’ Month was inaugurated in 1963, there were only 17 million Americans over the age of 65. Can you imagine? We’ve come quite a long way. You should definitely get out and do something to celebrate yourself and your elderly loved ones, but if you’re more civic minded, you can download all sorts of goodies including sample press releases, logos, and an outreach guide, from the Administration for Community Living.
