Celebrating Older Americans Month: Powered by Connection We CELEBRATE all Older Adults who live in Fulton County, their families, their caregivers and friends! Established in 1963, Older Americans Month (OAM) is celebrated every May. Led by a federal agency, the Administration for Community Living (ACL), OAM is a time to recognize older Americans’ contributions, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm commitments to serving the older adults in our communities. This year’s theme, "Powered by Connection," focuses on the profound impact that meaningful connections have on the well-being and health of older adults — a relationship underscored by the U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory on the Healing Effects of Social Connection and Community. It’s not just about having someone to chat with,” said Andrea Fettinger, Director of the Fulton Co. Office for Aging and Youth. It’s about the transformative potential of community engagement in enhancing mental, physical, and emotional well-being. By recognizing and nurturing the role that connectedness plays, we can mitigate issues like loneliness, ultimately promoting healthy aging for more Americans.” Download Flyer to Learn More!
