May Is Older Americans Month

Older adults have always made invaluable contributions to their communities. Their time, experience, and talents are of great value to their family, peers and neighbors. Older adults have raised families, built careers, volunteered their time and unique skills to all of us. In order to give proper recognition of the incredible role they play in our everyday life, President Johnson formally designated the month of May as Older Americans Month. The Older Americans Act did more than just raise awareness of and encourage community involvement with seniors. The Act also established the Administration on Aging within the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. It was the first federal agency designed to address the unique struggles of older Americans. It also introduced nutrition programs, transportation assistance, federally-funded adult day care, legal assistance, and other services for seniors. 

 

Finally, it paved the way to passing Medicare to offer health care for seniors. Every year, there is a theme for Older Americans Month, and this year’s theme focuses on highlighting the difference everyone can make in the lives of our nation’s older adults. Each of us has a purpose and a story of our own, a distinction that sets one apart, and this year’s theme encourages all of us, no matter our age, to nurture our self-awareness. Matshona Dhilwayo, the Canadian philosopher and author, perhaps described this year’s theme “Make Your Mark” best when he wrote, “Reach minds. Touch hearts. Move souls. Change lives.”

 

Resident of the Month - Eloise 

Eloise was born in Pennsylvania, and later moved to California. She attended college at California State University Los Angeles, and received her Bachelors in Criminal Justice. She used her degree to serve as a Probation Officer for two decades. Along the way she married and raised three children, who have since given her the joy of nine grandchildren. In her free time she loves to read, and always enjoys time with her friends, family and church community. As a devoted Protestant, her favorite Bible verse is Psalm 24:1, “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein.”
