‼️ Advocacy alert from USAging, March 3rd 2025

‼️ Advocacy alert from USAging, March 3rd 2025: Urge Your Lawmakers to Protect and Fund Critical Older Americans Act (OAA) Programs (https://bit.ly/4bGIdYl) As federal lawmakers continue work on a budget agreement, NOW is the time to voice your support for the Older Americans Act, which provides funding for critical services for millions of people nationwide. This includes funding, in part, for our own HOME Program and Caregiver Services, which empowered over 2500 Minnesotan older adults and caregivers last year. Reauthorizing the OAA will create stronger communities for all of us as we get older. Contact your lawmakers to express your support for the OAA and organizations like Senior Community Services that empower people as they age. More information & how to contact lawmakers:
