2016 Older Americans Month

May 01, 2016 - May 31, 2016        

May is Older Americans Month, and this year’s OAM theme is “Blaze a Trail.” The Administration for Community Living will use May as an opportunity to raise awareness about important issues facing older adults. It will also highlight the ways that older Americans are advocating for themselves, their peers, and their communities.

Materials are available at http://oam.acl.gov/.

ACL is interested in collecting the stories of older Americans who blaze trails themselves. Are you a trailblazer? Share your story! ACL wants to hear how you innovate, reinvent, and make your mark in ways both big and small.  http://oam.acl.gov/submissions/register.aspx
