I am looking for some ways a corporation can observe Older Americans month in May. Any ideas?

Hi Sharon

What type of corporation are you talking about?
Does this corporation employ older Americans?
Do you want to show the employees how valuable older Americans are?Every May, the Administration for Community Living leads the nation's observance of Older Americans Month (OAM). The 2023 theme is Aging Unbound, which offers an opportunity to explore diverse aging experiences and discuss how communities can combat stereotypes.

Thanks so much for this--I have found some extremely useful information there previously and will definitely use this link! And yes, we want our employees to think about the valuable experiences, knowledge and skills our seniors bring to our communities. I appreciate your reply!

Thank you so much for such an awesome resource and to everyone for sharing their ideas. It takes the pressure off and allows more time to be spent with the ones we are caring for who after all need our time more than anything else. I am looking forward to reading as much as I can get my hands on and finding ways to improve the lives of our valuable community members and bring some sunshine in. Much appreciated :)
