The words we use and the assumptions we make can shape how aging is viewed.

This Ageism Awareness Day, October 9, LeadingAge Illinois encourages our community to challenge age-based stereotypes and create environments where older adults are respected, included, and valued for their experience, contributions, and individuality.

Changing how we think about aging can help change how we serve, support, and engage older adults.
