Aging is Living Central Plains Area Agency on Aging

Every May, the Administration for Community Living leads the nation’s observance of Older Americans Month (OAM), a time to recognize older Americans' contributions, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm commitments to serving the older adults in our communities. This years' theme is "Powered by Connection", which recognizes the profound impact that meaningful relationships and social connections have on our health and well-being.
