Every May, the observance of Older Americans Month serves as a time to recognize the contributions of older Americans, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm a collective commitment to supporting older adults.
The 2025 theme, Flip the Script on Aging, focuses on transforming how society perceives, discusses, and approaches aging. It encourages individuals and communities to challenge stereotypes and dispel common misconceptions.
This year’s observance honors the contributions of older adults, explores the many opportunities for staying active and engaged throughout the aging process, and highlights the potential for purpose, exploration, and connection that aging can bring.
