Retirement Concerns on Aging ​

Are you getting to that point in life where age has become a concern? Read on!!! NCOA: Supporting Aging Americans Since 1950 A Legacy of Advocacy Since 1950, the National Council on Aging (NCOA) has championed the right for everyone to age well. It was the first U.S. charitable organization dedicated to advocating for older Americans, working closely with service providers and policymakers to address the needs and rights of senior citizens. Fighting Discrimination and Supporting Independence NCOA has been a vocal opponent of mandatory retirement and workplace age discrimination. The organization has advocated for policies allowing older adults to continue working and contributing to society as long as they are able and willing. This includes pushing for fair retirement policies and fighting age-based workplace biases. Empowering Seniors and Caregivers The council has supported senior centers, caregivers, and improved access to essential benefits. Its programs and services are designed to improve the health, economic security, and overall quality of life for older adults, especially those who are vulnerable or disadvantaged. Initiatives target issues like job training, nutrition, caregiver support, and elder rights protection. A National Success Story in Longevity NCOA's efforts have made America’s increased longevity a point of national pride. By partnering with nonprofits, government, and businesses, NCOA has helped millions of older adults live healthier, more secure, and more purposeful lives, continuing a legacy of impact that spans over 75 years[1][2][3][4].
