Caregiving is everywhere in MN right now. It happens at kitchen tables and on front porches, in the early morning rearranging of work schedules and late-night phone calls. If you are caring for someone, we see you. You strengthen all of us. Thank you #nationalcaregiversday #caregiving #agefriendlymn

Caregivers across Minnesota should be fearless, seen, and prized - prepared for what lies ahead, valued in our workplaces, and recognized as essential to our shared wellbeing. If you are caring for someone, we see you. Thank you! #nationalcaregiversday #caregiving #agefriendlymn

As a champion our shared mission, we recognize our Delegate Rajean Moone, LTC Administration Faculty Director for the University of Minnesota and Associate Director of Policy at the Center for Healthy Aging & Innovation. His #agefriendlymn leadership is central to our success.

Our aging isn’t static — it’s a dynamic process of growth and change. Help us shift the conversation from anti-aging to anti-ageism by joining us for a series of powerful discussions starting May 9: www.mnlcoa.org/reframeaging #reframeAging #agefriendlymn

More Minnesota seniors may go hungry after tightening state dollars mean fewer meals Nonprofits say state and federal funding has dried up and philanthropy is down, leaving senior nutrition programs faced with cutting back the number of meals they serve.

The title says it all:
We need more funding for senior meals to meet the demand in Minnesota. It's vital for the #mnleg to include this in their budget this biennium. It's about more than nutrition. It's about independence, respect and dignity. #agefriendlymn
