About NCOA
Since 1950, we’ve walked beside generations of Americans. We were the first national voice for older adults. We helped end mandatory retirement. We advocated to secure Medicare, Medicaid, and the Older Americans Act. Local organizations turned to us for support as they served older adults every day. And we built digital tools that empower older adults with knowledge.
Now, we’re stepping forward to do even more. Americans are living longer, but far too many are being left behind without the resources to age with dignity. We’re changing that.
We believe aging well is something every American deserves-regardless of gender, color, sexuality, income, or zip code. We deliver the resources, tools, best practices, and advocacy our nation needs to ensure that every person can age with health and financial security.

Please Donate. Your generosity brings us a little closer to a just and caring society in which each of us, as we age, lives with dignity, purpose, and security.

If I am going to be falling every 13 seconds, I need to stay at home in bed. Nothing else is safe enough.

This must have been written prior to use of cell phones. Looking at cell phones instead of where yu are going is causing many falls.

You want to delay the impact of aging as long as possible, but age related issues will happen to us all sooner or later. You must navigate your reality.

So this advice is too basic, it is true but leaves out the reason(s) people fall....
