Administration for Community Living-
Older Americans Month 2020- Make Your Mark
This theme was selected to encourage and celebrate countless contributions that older adults make to our communities.Their time,experience,and talents benefit family, peers, and neighbors every day. Communities,organizations,and individuals of all ages are also making their marks.This year's theme highlights the difference everyone can make- in the lives of older adults, in support of caregivers,and to strengthen communities. The Administration for Community Living was created around the fundamental principle that older adults and people of all ages with disabilities should be able to live where they choose, with the people they choose, and with the ability to participate fully in their communities.By funding services and supports provided by networks of community-based organizations, and with investments in research, education, and innovation, ACL helps make this principle a reality for millions of Americans.
