WHAT'S HAPPENING

EVENTS

sHOW SUPPORT FOR LGBT PRIDE, ENDING GUN VIOLENCE AND ELDER ABUSE AWARENESS IN JUNE!

Domestic and sexual violence are experienced by all kinds of people, unfortunately. Those who identify as LGBTQIA+ often face additional dangers and barriers that make seeking and getting help more challenging.

We encourage you to reflect on the countless contributions older adults make to our lives and the world. Let’s use “Make your Mark” to highlight the difference everyone can make in showing support for older adults, their caregivers and for strengthening the community and resources they need.

The Administration for Community Living has a number of resources for activity ideas during OAM, including ways to share your stories. Visit acl.gov for more information.
