(L to R): Grant Ames, Katie White, & YoLanda Lewis, all from COAAA, were in D.C. for the USAging Policy Briefing. COAAA joined reps from Area Agencies on Aging across the U.S. to meet with members of Congress to advocate for the Older Americans Act reauthorization.

We discussed the significant impact of the #OlderAmericansAct funding on services provided by AAAs at the local level. The reauthorization of the OAA in September is essential to meeting the growing needs of older adults across the state. USAging Policy Briefing

Reauthorization of the #OlderAmericansAct is a top policy priority for us this year. To support your OAA advocacy efforts, we created a toolkit to help you contact your lawmakers and local stakeholders about reauthorization. Find everything you need here: usaging.org/OAA.
