Older American’s Month is a special observance each year. Every May, the Administration on Aging, part of the Administration for Community Living, leads our nation’s observance of Older American’s Month.

Older American’s Month reminds the public that participating in activities that promote mental and physical wellness, offering wisdom and experience to the next generation, seeking the mentorship of someone with more life experience than you — those are just a few examples of what being engaged can mean.
