Hey guys , did you know that May is Older Americans Month? This year ' s theme is all about the power of connection and how it affects our health and well - being . We ' re going to be looking at how staying connected helps older adults remain independent and age in place by tackling issues like loneliness and isolation . If you want to get involved , here are some ideas: spread the word about the benefits of social connections for mental , physical , and emotional health , promote community events and clubs that older adults can join , help them find local services that assist with building meaningful relationships , encourage others to organize events that focus on connecting older adults with younger generations or providing peer support , and challenge your professional and personal networks to prioritize social connections . You can also join the conversation on social media by using the hashtag #PoweredByConnection and stay tuned for more resources and materials . Don ' t forget to use #OlderAmericansMonth to share your thoughts and see what others are up to!
