May is Older Americans Month, a time to recognize older Americans’ contributions, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm our commitment to serving older adults. This year’s theme, Champion Your Health, focuses on prevention, wellness, and personal responsibility as cornerstones of healthy aging. Much like person-centered counseling (a key element of a No Wrong Door system), this theme encourages taking an active role in managing your own health, advocating for yourself, accessing preventive care, and making informed decisions that support independence. Join us in elevating evidence-based approaches, everyday actions, and community partnerships that help people lead healthier, more independent lives. Visit ACL’s Older Americans Month website for ready-to-use materials to support your outreach here.
