We’re all aging. Older adults are becoming a larger population than at any time in history. To prepare and show that our state values older adults, Illinois needs a strategic action plan for aging. Join us.
We all are aging all the time and are impacted by aging of our loved ones and neighbors.
Illinois’s population is aging.
Many struggle with aging. Health inequities reduce quality of life and cut lives short.
Older adulthood should be a time for joy, celebration, and fulfillment.
Illinois needs a strategic action plan for aging. We're stronger together. Join us here.
What do we need to support equitable aging for all?
What is the Illinois Aging Together Campaign?
Illinois Aging Together is a campaign for aging equity in Illinois. This campaign is working to have Illinois government develop and adopt a long-term Strategic Action Plan for Aging. The campaign also seeks to counteract ageism by promoting the value, meaning, and purpose of life that older adults should be able to enjoy with their families and communities.
What does the campaign do?
The campaign is growing an aging equity movement of people of all walks of life from across Illinois who want their family, friends, neighbors, and themselves to be able to age well with dignity. We do this through ongoing conversation, advocacy, training, and movement building for aging equity.
