Click here to send a message to your member(s) of Congress supporting reauthorization of the Older Americans Act (OAA).  

Since 1965, the OAA has provided services and supports that improve seniors’ lives whether they are in their own homes or nursing homes. These include services such as meals, health programs, and transportation that keep older adults in their homes; ombudsman program services that protect older adults in long- term care facilities; and elder prevention and legal services that protect seniors no matter where they live. 

The OAA is supposed to be reauthorized in 2011.  With every day that passes, the future of critical programs that serve seniors is more and more uncertain.  Help us send a message to Congress about this important program.
